Foster's take on spending bananas

After eight months, Democrat Bill Foster has finally responded to an e-mail I sent him in January of this year complaining about a new spending program he promoted to us. Not bothering to address my concerns, he confessed how runaway spending is so problematic that he recently voted against $3.7 billion in new spending.

The only problem is that Foster has presided over increasing spending by $3.7 trillion.

Considering how crazy this is, he should be known as "Bananas Foster." The fact is that the increase in spending since 2007 has been an average of $4.1 billion per day. So he is saying that he was able to stop his own party from increasing spending by one day.

What we should give Foster his pink slip in November.
