Stop the Insanity

More tax cuts, more war, more spending, more red ink. "Compassionate Conservatism" is neither. Bush and his cadre are callous crooks who will lie their asses off to stay in power, and we the people stand and cheer while they rape Lady Liberty right in front of us. It really is a mad, mad, mad, mad world.

Bush's Budget Bolsters Pentagon

President Bush yesterday proposed a $2.77 trillion spending plan for the coming year that drains money from two-thirds of federal agencies, continues a large military buildup and predicts that the federal deficit this year will far eclipse the previous record, reaching $423 billion.

In the White House budget for the fiscal year ending in October 2007, Pentagon funding would increase by nearly 7 percent and, for the first time in Bush's presidency, claim more than half the government's expenditure on discretionary programs, those that get set each year. The $439.3 billion that the plan devotes to the military is 45 percent greater than the Pentagon budget when Bush took office five years ago.
