Then, explain why you chose to reply to me in the first place. Oh yes, to
get off a quick deprecating shot at me.

Government spending appears to be okay to you as long as it's the right

I never claimed the Repubs are any better. They lost in 2006 and 2008
because they were no better.

Here's an intelligent solution for you... cut spending across the board and
live within our means. $13trillion in debt and $1 trillion deficits as far
as the eye can see is unsustainable. Here's where you claim it's all the
Republicans' fault and mumble incoherently about how great Obama and the
Democrats are at fiscal responsibility.

It's no worse than your feeble attempts at insulting me.
