Have you ever wondered who has their hands in your wallet?

So just between Clinton, Obama, and Biden they have spent $505,665,635 of the American people's money on crap.

Yet Obama wants to cut Tens of Billions of Dollars in defense spending.

Guess he needs more money for pork.
 
5.56

You made a mistake. Under Party you selected all which includes all people involved including REPUBLICANS. That $89 Million doesn't all go to Obama but everybody involved. You should have selected Democrat. (that's only PORK that went to ILLINOIS). When you do you get this:

OBAMA 28 records $28 Million -Which is CHICKEN FEED.
Clinton 206 records for $175 Million.

I noticed you didn't bother running any other Republicans so I did it for you.

Ted Stevens R-Alaska 148 Records for $433 MILLION. (That DOUBLE both Hillary and Obama combined).

Sry 5.56, but your attempt to show Obama has some type of wasteful spender is off. McCain is better on spending on PORK that's true, but $28M for the Federal Government is pocket change, especially compared to everyone else. And as we see some of Mr. McCain's colleagues are far worse than he is. And if we really want to investigate which is the worst spender look at Congress 1994-2006 (the years the GOP was in charge).

AND Even when you add the full $89 Million, its still chicken feed compared to the $720 Million spent A DAY for a war that nobody wants but John McCain.
