Wild spending ride a roaring success

President Obama's first 100 days in office are just what we should expect.

Obama lived up to his image of a tax and spend Democrat, especially the spend part.

President Obama's $787 billion stimulus is estimated by the CBO to cost $3.27 trillion His $410 billion omnibus bill was loaded with earmarks. His budget proposal for 2010 will cost $3.6 trillion and he will need to borrow $1.2 trillion.

Obama's wild spending will double the national debt in five years and triple it in 10 years.

By the Democratic Party's standard of wild, irresponsible spending, Obama has been a roaring success.
