How about $1.27 TRILLION on an insipid, unjustified, unconstitutional, illegal, immoral 'war' against another sovereign nation that in no way threatened, provoked or attacked the United States? That's ONE MILLION DOLLARS A DAY for the next 3,487 years (as of last August, 2006)*;
How about that 'bridge to nowhere" in Alaska?
How about a teapot museum in South Carolina?
How about automatic pay increases for members of Congress?
How about military airplanes that even the Pentagon doesn't want??
How about....oh, hell, the list is endless!!!

All you have to do is ask a liberal two things: Why does Bush spend money in Iraq? and How can we get Universal Health care/insurance? ....
They will rant endlessly about how the money should be spent... and there will be your stupid government spending when they give you answers.

Most sites are biased and thus you have to do your own research since most people here enjoy insulting the other side.

I don't know any sites, but it boggles my mind how we keep getting new arenas built for these losing sports teams and stuff like that, meanwhile, people don't have healthcare.
