McCain's Budget Blunders Posted by Patrick Barry

It's funny to hear McCain taut himself as the candidate of fiscal responsibility and discipline when his own positions waver between laughable to just plain dishonest.  For instance, take his claim that he will balance the budget by winning in Iraq and Afghanistan, which, according to Senator McCain will result in instant savings - that's so preposterous I don't even know how to respond.  But more substantively, if you take just a quick glance at his foreign policy proposals, specifically his limitless commitment to Iraq, and you can't help but wonder how he will square this circle

Read on:

McCain’s claims to be the candidate of fiscal responsibility, but would continue spending $10 billion a month in Iraq with no end in sight.  McCain has set himself up as a fiscal hawk, railing against wasteful government spending, and pledging to both keep taxes low and balance the budget.  This ambitious agenda is undermined by his limitless commitment to Iraq.  Though the size of the federal budget deficit is $400 billion, the United States has appropriated more than $650 billion for the war in Iraq, and direct and indirect costs are projected to run between $1-$3 trillion.  This is all while the Iraqi government maintains a budget surplus of tens of billions of dollars. It is hard to see how McCain will exercise fiscal discipline at home, while he is promoting the same commitments to Iraq that have already put the federal budget under tremendous strain.  [JohnMcCain.com, 2008.

John McCain’s biggest blunder is being too simple-minded to recognize that the GOP has been using the White House as a front for propelling fascism onto the global stage. The soon to be outed party leader is guilty of innumerable crimes, including treason, war crimes, fiscal mismanagement, larceny on a grander scale, obstruction of justice, and in general just being an idiot.
It doesn’t matter what John McCain did or does, the vast majority of American citizens are sick of having the US Constitution and Bill of Rights shit all over by greedy and morally bankrupt fascists. The remaining minority who still support the 4th Reich are just like the Nazis who turned in or killed their neighbors and family members who dared stand up against the real evil in Nazi Germany. Good thing we’ve learned from that in this country. Sorry to burst your bubble but it just isn’t going to heppen again.
