Where is the spending $$ going? Tell me what programs you would do without. Could it be the medicare drug bill. Well, I know that if you can have people take their meds, the long term effects of illness with its increased morbidity will be lessened. It will take time but I guarantee you a jalopy works better with TLC and frequent tuneups than one that has never been worked on. I for one can only imagine that is one $$ program you are talking about. Do you really think that the democrats would have made it for less? And now that Bush has control of the medicare drug bill, there then will follow control of the social security.

Without a doubt, the strength of the republican control in white house and congress will be evident in the second term. Don't you ever wonder why the democrats want to be in control so much? It is about controlling the agenda and forcing their liberal views on us.

Not a legitimate function of government. End of Story.

Every program not authorized by the United States Constitution.

How is that MY problem, thus involving MY money?

Do you really think that the democrats would have made it for less?

Of course not. But a GOP Congress would not cooperate with a DemonRat president like they have w/ GWB.

And now that Bush has control of the medicare drug bill, there then will follow control of the social security.

Ha! Massive expansion? SS is one of those programs I want abolished.

Right. And the Republican agenda appears to involve relinquishing control to the DemonRats and forcing their liberal views on us.
