I'll bet all you out there in the blogosphere have been wondering how this administration has been able to afford both tax cuts for the rich and to fund a massively expensive unecessary war. These two recent articles from the New York Times:
Governors Oppose New Medicaid Rules
Sheriffs Protest Fed Drug - War Fund Cuts
(To read the articles, you have to register with the New York Times. It's free.)
So they're cutting funds for Medicaid and for local law enforcement officers to deal with the growing problem of meth. And to make matters worse, we're losing the war in Afghanistan because the resources to fight people who actually helped the terrorists who killed thousands of Americans are tied up in Iraq, a country that didn't do anything to us.
This last weekend, there was heartbreaking article in the New York Times Magazine about the struggle of an American Army unit in Afghanistan, Battle Company Is Out There.
Good god, I hate this administration..

Well, you have to admit, there is a lot of math going around. We've got to put a stop to it.

they can't -- our kids will see the bill
I am still trying to process the horror that company and others like them are going through over there.
This should be required reading for all who would put men and women into battle.
The Bush admin did neatly oversee the Shi'ites take over the Iraqi federal govt. -- probaly not what they orginally intended . . .
And gas prices have gotten cheaper since the invasion and occupation, haven't they?
