I wonder in awe over the amounts of money required to bailout this financial crisis, and yet our Congressional friends continue to spend.

Two articles in a recent paper alluded to the U.S. House approval of only $630 billion spending bill together with a record Pentagon War funding bill of only $612 billion more.

Years ago, when my late parents first went back to Europe to visit family,my father came home and told me that the people in Europe think that money in America "grows on trees."
