Kevin, we don't want to use common sense when it comes to spending money. Whether it's an individual or the government. Nobody on the left even responded to this topic other than one person saying that Laura Bush did the same thing.

If you or I was upside down financially we'd eat Ramen noodles and disconnect our TV package. Maybe even work a second job to make ends meet. Not these days. Keep catering to the masses and they'll just expect more and more of the same in the future. That's how you build a voter base. Bush did it when it came to the immigration policy. BO is doing it with hand outs. It would be nice to see those on the bottom of the upside down pyramid lead by example.
