Riddle me this.....

as i have been somewhat listening to the speeches of our presidential candidates, i start thinking about all the cliches that are said. i can't help but wonder if any of what they say they will do actually gets done. there are two quotes that i found, in succession, from Rudy Giuliani on MSNBC that got me thinking.

Giuliani promised that McCain would “lower taxes so our economy can grow.”
“He will reduce government spending to strengthen our dollar,” Giuliani said.

doesn't McCain want to continue the war on Iraq? now i am certainly not one that understands the economy very well, but i have to pose the question; how can you lower taxes, reduce government spending and fund a war? like i said, i am no expert but does this mean he is going to pay for the war with his own money? if that is the case, then i might have to reconsider.
