You think two off-budget WARS are FREE? WARS are ruinously expensive.

Ask Odumbo and what about his ridiculous idea for terrorist trials on USA soil - that would have cost a fortune. I see he finally saw reason and decided to do exactly what Bush began.

The wars where a fairly small part of the spending increase. Most of the extra spending was in areas where the Democrats kept saying Bush wasn't spending enough.

They are. But two off-budget wars for their entire duration cost less than Obama wasted his first month in office. And frankly, they did more for our economy than the Obama stimulus ever could have.
