Where is the “Change”

"Obama has gone down the exact same road as Bush with his spends more than you bring in mentality. He has presented a budget of over 3.6 trillion dollars and raised taxes with estimates of 3 trillion dollars. Why not come up with a plan of covering the gap of 600 billion? Why plan to be short? If this is right for America, why can’t you create a plan that pays for it? Obama has been a coward at facing this issue. To increase spending by a trillion dollars and not presenting a way of paying for it is truly a tragedy.

"Obama is committing more and more troops to Afghanistan, my question is for what? What is an objective there? How do we know if we are winning? When can we say it was a job well done? What is the plan, any plan other than bomb evil into the ground? How do we know it is going well? Right now it seems our goal in Afghanistan is to bomb it into the ground until every citizen there says they hate terrorism, is that our goal? We must make them all say they love America, and we will by bombing them into the ground. This poor leadership on our budget and our military risks the entire country. First we make us less safe by extending unwinnable wars, and are bankrupting ourselves at the same time.

"China is growing so fast because they get to stand back and watch us waste all of our money on military bases around the world guarding Japan, Germany, and 130 countries that we have bases in. We need this to end today. Mr. Obama we need Change, you promised Change, my question is what has changed. More money spent without paying for it, more Americans at war. Where is the change?"
