OT - Federal Spending has increased 45% since 2001

Federal spending has increased 45% since 2001.

Consider some of the problems solved with that money:

1 Terrorism: Nope
2 Border security: No
3 Immigration: Nah
4 Bin Laden: still on the loose
5 Iraq: Enuf said
6. Deficit: Your kidding right?
7 Social Security: Maybe bird flu will fix it
8 Medicare/drug plan: Welfare for drug companies
9 Energy: Buy gas lately?
10 Education: OK except for all the children left behind
11 Inflation: If you considered it too low, Bush is fixing it
12 Trade deficit: Better learn to speak Chinese
13 Jobs: Plenty at Walmart and McDonald's
14 Pension Reform: Mobil/Exxon exec got his OK

Why should we listen to someone who doesn't know the difference between
*your* and *you're*

Oh wait... you're a Liberal, you're allowed to be stupid. Sorry.

so why didn't you dispute what he said instead of engaging
in an ad hominem attack?

oh wait, you can't.

That whole laundry list of unsolved issues, and you only see the misuse of
"your"?? Anyone surprised how Bush got elected?

Bush got elected because your candidates were a very bad choice and the
American people saw through them.

You keep repeating that to yourself. Just don't try saying it to anyone
with a brain. The reaction you get is likely to hurt your feelings.

education is local issue. Blame it on the democratic controlled inner
cities. No problems with education outside inner city schools.

and elswhere too. I am trying to hire systems admins with no avail. Salary

Private companies can do what they want. People willing to pay, they will
charge it. When gas was at 10 a barrel no one complained it was too cheap.[color=blue]

What!!?? Where is this located? How many years experience? Where are you
posting? Where are you advertising? Are there special requirements or an
unusual environment? Are you working at Aramco?

I've not seen a "systems administrator," at least not in the IT sense,
posted for more than $65K. I get calls from headhunters looking for deep,
deep, deep SQL DBA expertise offering $75K, tops.

Your company must have a bad reputation or other problems. Otherwise no one
would be rejecting that salary.

Why does the converation always seem to turn to ones sexual preferance in
the NGs?

The Republicans in the House have been trying for five years to reduce
federal spending but the Dimocrats keep stopping spending cuts from being
passed in the Senate

What is wrong with President Bushs new drug plan for the elderly? I'm
paying $40 for drugs that use to cost me $135.

First, that is BS and second, the President has something called a veto
power.
