And acting like this is some new Obama thing is just plain silly - all administrations staff themselves with cronies. Getting elected means you owe a lot of favours - complaining only when the Democrat does it is (and I do not recall any of these type of posts 5 months after Bush was elected) hypocritical.
The shoe is on the other foot now - if the GOP had not made such a mess of things then the electorate might have kept them in office. Suck it up - there is still 3.5/7.5 years left.

Yes Bush was terrible. He took the full 8 years to increase the deficit by 5 Trillion dollars. Obama has committed to increase the deficit by more than 9 Trillion in only 4 months And he is still charging ahead. The $1.7Trillion, MINIMUM, extra that the 'health care non-plan' will cost is not even in the over 9 Trillion. Then there is Energy, his "plan-in-progress" for energy WILL be over at least a Trillion. Then education, pooff, another few Trillions.
Someone, for or against, I don't know, quoted $23,000,000,000,000.00 in obama's plans. How long do YOU remain silent? I have never been political in my life, and I do not want to be political. But this reckless clown, obama, is beyond reason even for a politician.
And it is not just the completely insane, and I mean actually, clinically insane, spending. But it is the voiding of the Constitution, the bypassing of business and bankruptcy laws. The out and out lying, The absolutely naive foreign policy statements, the sophomoric treatment of foreign leaders, friend and foe alike. "Thanks England for the priceless and unique gift, here's some old CD's" "Ahh President-for-Life, Dictator Chavez, let me show your completely spurious book to the world so it will sell more." And, while you're at it, "Gimmie a hug, you big lug."
Bush was inarticulate, this guy is a dolt.
