Apparently the new Republican slogan is B.O.H.I.C.A.!

Bend

Congrats to all Bush-Bots. I have an idea...you LOVE what he's doing SOoooomuch...YOU VOLUNTEER more Tax $$$, and I'll opt out of sinking more of MY $$$ into that $hi*hole of a Continent!

That OK with all you GW-Uber-Alles folk?

LOL.

Bush needs to start showing his compassion to the American Taxpayer and instruct the IRS to send vaseline with the tax forms.

In defense of Bush, poor third world nations are thought to be a breeding ground for terrorism...maybe this plan will keep the terrorists away from our shores?

Personally, I'd rather spend the money building a steel fence around our borders.

All those on this thread who are complaining about these small potatoes are dishonest.

If you Bush Bashers were honest, you would be complaining about $91 Billion

This headline I would LOVE to SEE

Bush promises 100 million in Mid-Income Tax Break for Oklahoma for next 5 years

I have to start sending a daughter to a university or college next year. With the Fed hooked up to one arm, the state into the other and the local gov't searching for the vein in my leg I may not make it.

Save America FIRST, George!!!

You've been diligent in your effort to get someone to speak out against Israel; sorry you have no takers. Do you have a problem with money going to Israel? If so, feel free to state your POV.

Congrats due, however, you're the first one on this thread to proclaim "Bush bashers", Bet that makes your otherwise uninteresting day.

Doubtful.

Only Israel gets as much aid from us as Egypt does, and we saved the Saudis from Saddam in 1991.

Yet the 9/11 hijackers were all Saudis and Egyptians.

For me, the $500 million for "mothers" is completely a drug company fantasy come true. It's not about education...cheap...condoms...abstinence...bigger attacks on the disease as a whole, but which gains little for any corporate sponsor. Instead, you take the more hopeless of cases, raise the flag of motherhood, and make direct payments to the drug companies who have the only relief possible for this specific agenda. I'd bet it was drafted by some NGO front for the drug companies posing as a charity - which most NGOs seem to be these days. Bushbots get to think their commander and chief is doing something nice (not to mean he understands the issues as a whole.)

Follow the money - who profits. Charity is the best cover story.

It has nothing to do with Israel. You are either for foreign aid or against foreign aid. Where do you stand?

Is foreign aid to Africa bad, while aid to Israel OK?

you're the first one on this thread to proclaim "Bush bashers" ************** that's what we have a problem with. because we comment on our dissatisfaction with bush's policies does not make us "bush bashers." that label is getting really old.
