ok whoopty dee! Maybe we were voting over ideological reasons maybe we weren't...but the real point is that the republicans were willing to spend that much money in those wars...but now it's "oh my gosh, oh my gosh! spending is out of control!". Ha ha thats a joke. Again it's not about the budget, it's all a political move. They can whine and complain about how we spend to much to look good, and then slice programs they don't like to get their enemies out of the way.If they really cared about the fiscal spending they would vote us out of those pointless wars ASAP and take a long hard look at the defense spending of this nation, because it is one of the largest chunks there is. However, they like the Military industrial complex so they will never cut funding to the DoD. Apparently they hate the air and would also like to see our daughters get knocked up..because guess what was on the chopping block.
