[Loyal Buckeye]

The President tweeks the RATS again.

[Coop]

Yeah, but I'm not sure this is a fight that was wise to start. We'll see, I guess.

[anniegetyourgun]

Yes. I'm guessing that the administration is placing a great deal of emphasis on the WOT/Homeland Security-related transitional costs. Given the situation we are in, it wouldn't surprise me that the demands for briefings and orientations are going to be higher.

It also tells me that the President is taking the best interest of the nation into account here, not his own administration. The reason I say that is that the costs of transitioning a wartime effort to a bunch of incompetent appeasers in the event of a D party victory would be very high.

[meenie]

It would seem that transition funds would be used when transition took place. In the new world of virtual reality prevalent in Washington, this does not mean what it says.
