"one of the biggest peacetime spending binges since World War II."
That's the new line these days. It's a lie, but so's everything else.
With all of Romney's failures regarding foreign policy, this is one of the funniest. Maybe he just wanted to ignore the fact that wars cost money, especially wars that Bush financed through the Chinese. Those interest payments get mighty high, ya know.
I'm trying to remember any mention of it, but has there ever been a balanced budget during wartime?
