Well the deal with giving minorities grants to buy homes didn't go over to well either, but that's politics as usual.

knak, please read the actual proposal. Minorities may benefit from it, but it is geared towards the poor. Also it is not a direct grant program; it is a cost reduction and easier lending program. You have fallen hook, line and sinker for the anti-Bush spin on the subject. I had a link to the actual Bush statement on another thread, but the article is now not at that link anymore. I'm sure it has to be on FR somewhere.

Funny, I heard him say that it WAS geared so that MINORITIES could buy more houses..oh..and how about millions for African AIDS? oh..and being against arming pilots... as I have asked before..how long will you have to keep explaining his actions? Yes, he's the best we've got right now, but frankly, it's not enough for me.

Wasn't it Bush, though, who was playing a classic game of class warfare with his speech about "less than _% of black Americans not owning their own homes, but white Americans owning at a much higher percentage"?
