Obama squandered the expiring of the Bush Tax Cuts and I think that was reckless on his part. He should not have bargained it away just so he could get unemployment benefits extended. That will go down as one of his administration's biggest blunders. But don't mistake that as Obama not understanding that the current course is unsustainable. He's been trying to raise revenue but the Republicans refuse to consider raising taxes to balance the budget.

Trying to raise revenue is not understanding that the current course is unsustainable.

Do you think the previous practice from both sides of the aisle of spending whatever additional funds become available could have a bearing on the current Congressional impasse, especially in light of the spending record the current administration has already displayed?

Almost no-one I know, Republican, Independent, or Democrat, believes that additional taxation would be left alone to pay down the deficit. Most believe that, as in the past, the additional tax revenue will be seen as a source to fund additional expenditure, independent of any budgetary cuts that are made.

Don't interrupt me when I'm talking to myself

According to the graph Obama saved us $126 billion on Defense! Slipped that in the graph, maybe the author was a tad bias :devil:

I saw that in the graph, but it's a lie.
