Don't let your recollection of talking points get in the way of the facts.

Look at the budget for the years with the wars, and with Bush as president.

For example -

gpo.gov!-1119631157!888436174?collectionCode=BUDGET&browsePath=Fiscal+Year+2005&searchPath=Fiscal+Year+2005&leafLevelBrowse=false&isCollapsed=false&isOpen=true&packageid=BUDGET-2005-BUD

You'll see that the wars are there, whether its listed as "Winning the War on Terror", or "Overseas Contingency Operations"for each year.

Its "on budget" because its in the budget.
