Why do you think Obama is giving away so much money?
I didn't know he was. GWB stole two elections, took a multi-trillion dollar budget surplus and turned it into a multi-trillion dollar budget deficit, and he did it all in eight short years with two needless wars in deserts half-way around the world and by giving billionaires enormous tax breaks. Oh yeah, I forgot... it's all Obama's fault.
