I think you mean the Republicans. They spend more than Democrats but just to different friends. And America is losing on this tax deal. Obama should NEVER have let Republicans put these tax gifts through! Its reckless spending that does NOTHING for the economy.
1) gift? the rich after the Bush tax "cuts" are paying more of the income tax burden than any time in history because lots of people on the bottom dropped off the roles
2) the problem is not with the rich or not taxing them enough. Its with the middle and lower classes who have been brainwashed into thinking that all deficit problems can be cured by making other people ("the rich") pay more taxes. Until the majority of americans have to pay and pay and pay, there will never be enough voters to put an end to the massive government expansion that started with the DEMOCRAT's NEW DEAL.
THe Bush tax rates are NOT SPENDING.
