Barack likes to spend? Really? Have you been paying attention? Two wars and a huge bailout were part of the previous president not to mention he started things off with a budget surplus (which he managed to piss away with a tax rebate right off the bat). This is on top of all the regular spending which Dubya did nothing to reduce (even his vp said "deficits don't matter").
The only time the Republicans seem to get worked up over spending is when the other guy is in charge. If Romney had won, nobody would have given him the slightest bit of grief over the debt ceiling and we wouldn't have even had to cut social security or mediare, either.
