So if Obama simply decides to continue spending on stuff that the previous administration did he gets a pass? Looks to me like a little more than $3 Trillion of that stuff under Bush is, at a minimum, shared.

Not to mention that not taking someone's property is not spending. A tax cut is not spending or a "loss of revenue". It's a tax cut. If you want to talk spending, talk spending. You want to talk taxes, talk taxes. But don't try to lump them into the same category as they are different things.
