Bush Kills $5.1B Security Bill

I think this is the bill that #97 was begging for an invite to Crawford to lobby for.

I must say that I don't understand some of the things he's setting as priorities but all in all I think this is a good thing.

Indeed, Bush said he was sending a message to Congress, which gave him an all-or-nothing choice on the $5.1 billion slice of an emergency spending bill that he signed into law little more than one week ago.

"A lot of that money has nothing to do with national emergency," Bush said Tuesday. "I understand their position and today they're going to learn mine - we'll spend none of it."

Yeah, I have a real problem with $200 million MORE dollars for AIDS prevention. They already get the bulk of medical money in the US budget, and misuse it.
