I am still laughing at your laughter.
You don’t have answers. Bush does. Bush actually did something. He was not just sitting a keyboard timing mean comments about the President. He actually did something.
I have provided repeated references to various ways Bush controlled spending.
None of your analysis rebuts the cited points made by me.
Was the spending Emergency spending?
Indeed it was.
I want to commend you for doing some research. The Heritage foundation is a great source. However, their best guesses on Feb 6, 2006 don’t cut it for this debate. Because the SPECULATON that they engage in regarding 2006, 2007, and 2008 is now historical fact. The data I am citing from January 2009 can see what Heritage has to guess about.
Again, there is a simple litmus test. Do Democrats believe that Bush is cutting programs or denying adequate funding?
Yes.
This means the political alternative is more spending. Bush constrains spending.
He did lots of things. Controlling spending was not one of them.

I must have missed that. Where?
None of your analysis rebuts the cited points made by me.
Except the incorrect 3% number you're agreeing with.
Was the spending Emergency spending? Indeed it was.
Maybe the White House ignored the emergency spending when they fabricated the 3% figure?

Great. So what was the non-defense, non-homeland security spending in 2001 and the latest number?
The data I am citing from January 2009 can see what Heritage has to guess about.
The data you cite makes a claim, 3% growth. I didn't see the actual spending numbers. You have a link?
Do Democrats believe that Bush is cutting programs or denying adequate funding? Yes.
So, let me get this straight, if spending is supposed to rise 10% and it only rises 9.5% and the Democrats whine and bitch and moan, that means Bush cut programs or denied adequate funding?
Your math skills rely on Democrat whining?
This means the political alternative is more spending. Bush constrains spending.
Except for the spending he doesn't constrain.
