A year ago liberals and conservatives alike excoriated George Bush for spending money like Paris Hilton on a bender. Of course, way back then we were all a little naive, believing as we did that a $450 billion fiscal year deficit was outrageous and irresponsible.
Apparently liberals have had a change of heart, now that their patron saint is president. With an FY 2009 projected deficit of almost $2 trillion, and a 10-year accumulated deficit projected by Obama's own budget team at $1o trillion, liberal outrage at spending has been strangely absent. You know, like liberal outrage over David Letterman's sexist "slut" jokes about Sarah Palin's daughter.
Next time a liberal tells you how all Obama is doing is trying to get us out of the mess that George Bush got us into, you might want to send him this two-and-a-half-minute visual aid and then ask him exactly how what Obama is doing is going to make anything better.
