Because most of them are too ignorant or selfish to care about what's going on. They think if they get taxed, then the government is spending money, and if they don't get taxed then the government isn't spending money. The fact is that the Bush administration hasn't taxed the present generation, but instead has borrowed money and printed it. Thus the next generation will pay the price.
But even if a Bush supporter knows this, they typically don't care. They only care about what THEY can get. They don't care anything about future Americans as they drive up the national debt.

GOOD POINT!!
To answer your question though, I am not a Bush fan. One need not support Bush to criticize the liberals. The President's guilt does not mean their innocence. Both of them are guilty .
1. Bush is guilty because he has veto power
2. Congress is guilty because they control the budget.
3. If we don't hold these people accountable at the ballot box we will be guilty as well.

Borrows & Spends. I'd like to think it's because the hold a well-considered opinion on the merits of demand side vs supply side economic stimulus - but, much more likely, it's just the usual partisan hackery.

Both parties have devolved to this level. GOP for military budget and Dems for Social Programs. I say we stop trying to run peoples lives, domestic or international.

because they don't mind paying more at the gas pump because the decline of the dollar's value.
That is what happens when you print money. The value of each dollar goes down and you have to use more of it to buy foreign goods such as oil.

We haven't.
Conservatives have complained every time Bush joined with the Socialist/Communist Democrats to spend & spend & spend.
When are Democrats going to get off Welfare and get jobs??????
Then they too WILL complain about "tax & spend".
(Just for "facts" sake: Bush is not Printing Money. If he was, Inflation would be running rampant.)
Too bad you little kids didn't have to survive during the Carter Days.
NOW THAT WAS PRINTING MONEY!!!

Mannza is correct - you get too close to either party's fire, you get burned.
