The Republicans have criticized Obama by asking how he will pay for "$660 billion" in proposed spending.

At a recent debate:
Q: President Bush has talked about our staying in Iraq for 50 years — (cut off by McCain)
McCAIN: "Make it a hundred."

My question: We've spent a trillion dollars on the Iraq war with the promise that we will stabilize the country and give the middle east a shining example of what democracy can accomplish. Mr. John McCain, how are you going to pay for just one more decade in Iraq?!

Now, see, I thought this was going to be about his hypocrisy of voting against the ban on waterboarding, despite his past opposition to torture.

Yeah, DSF, that vote is strange and sad given all he has said about opposing torture but then again, he is a Republican.
