    Complaining about money is very different from telling people how to defeat security measures like the Liberals did at the Republican convention in New York 2004. Talk about a sickness!

    I may not like the fact that Obama won or how much money is being spent on security, but unlike a lot of Liberals, I would never threaten the mans life nor tell others how to succeed in taking his life to include how to defeat security measures at the inauguration.

    Most of them haven't bothered to look at sources for the party and are lumping the people donating money in to the taxpayer category. Yes, the people donating are also taxpayers but they are spending their own money. Taxpayers are picking up security and transportation. If they want to decrease those costs then they can stop spreading hate, but also tell everyone to stay home since record crowds are in DC.

    Many of them also like to complain that the donations should be going to another source. I've provided them with a name of a person who donated $2MM all day today, but I don't believe any of them has bothered to call him and tell him how to spend his money...

    THink about this.

    He and his supports want to have many lavish and extravagant parties.

    WHY should it be the tax payers responsibility to foot the bill so he can have a good time?

    AND we are "PRO GUN" as you say it...on a personal level. We take care of our own security since our government places that lower on the priority list than they do many other things.

    And that is supposed to be their FIRST CONCERN.

    because they are terribly misguided and have been extremely misinformed by those in power on the far right. remember in The Matrix, when Neo was put under the first time? When he came out of it, he complained that his eyes really hurt, and Morpheus replied, "that's because you've never used them- now they're open!" I think this applies to the awakening of the cons who are just now seeing what goes on. If they realized that the majority of tax revenue goes towards the military and not to "lazy people who don't want to work", maybe then they'd pull their heads out of their asses and realize that they, too, have been screwed just like everyone else.

    What security? Why can't he depend on the Washington DC police like the common people are supposed to? The American people have no obligation to provide special security for him, or any of our politicians. After all, they work for us.

    Well, Republicans aren't on agreement on everything, and there are many republicans who think were spending too much on defense and overseas expenditures.

    And Obama doesnt plan to do anything about it. he's gonna keeep giving billions of your dollars to israel, and the many other countries we give 'aid' to. thats change for you.

    We are not just talking about the money spent on security, maybe you should get the whole story, before just shooting off what ever comes to your brain!

    150M for a party? think your being intentionally vague.

    edit: a party for the same group that didnt think our troops needed body armor or armored Hum-Vees.
