When Bush pushes for a tax increase then you have a gripe Right now he is just switching money around within the present budget. That is what budgets are for to decide on spending priorities.

"When Bush pushes for a tax increase then you have a gripe..."

IMHO, I have a gripe now, because spending is UP significantly, and not only in Defense. We've not seen any good, solid Conservative domestic legislation cutting the size and scope of government since Welfare Reform, and it's high time we went back on the offense and demanded some!!

"Right now he is just switching money around within the present budget. That is what budgets are for to decide on spending priorities."

The Federal Budget is also growing at a crisp pace...if Dubyuh can get this new Homeland Security Department up and running with a decrease in overall personnel and cost, it'd be quite a coup. The Federal Budget is inarguably too large, and the GOP's representative in the Oval Office needs to show some leadership in paring it back!!
