Well, the truth is I'm just a regular Joe who's just tired of everyone having rights but me. The only intact piece of the entire Bill of Rights is the 3rd Amendment. It doesn't make me a radical kook to understand enough about it to recognize that. I'm being taxed worse than a medieval serf, whose status was that of a slave. Watching elected officials play footsie with my money while ignoring basic responsibilities of the office makes me "steamed".

BTW: To better understand what GWB has done and is doing fiscally, I encourage you to read the following article:

BACK TO THE BLUEPRINT
U.S. fiscal policy is turning in the direction President Bush first envisioned.

By J. Edward Carter

President George W. Bush’s first budget (“A Blueprint for New Beginnings”) outlined a sweeping vision for remaking U.S. fiscal policy. It was, as Bush described it, “a new vision for governing the Nation for a new generation.” But as we all know today, those plans were soon derailed as the Bush administration inherited an economy on the verge of recession and a world situation on the verge of upheaval. Four years and two wars later, U.S. fiscal policy is headed back in the direction President Bush first envisioned.
