Your tax dollars at WORK!!


A statement released by Senate Democrats said that under Bush's

watch, federal spending has increased 50 percent to $2.78 trillion

since 2001; the $236 billion surplus he inherited has been turned

into the three largest deficits in U.S. history; and national debt has

risen $3 trillion to $8.9 trillion.

"After running up $3 trillion in new debt -- including

more than half a trillion dollars for his flawed Iraq

policy -- it is astounding that the president is once again

lecturing Congress about fiscal responsibility," said

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada.

"Democrats are investing in the priorities of America's

middle class families, veterans and children, and are

dedicated to fighting terror more effectively; President

Bush wants to continue investing only in Iraq."
