"War on Terror" Unfunded Options

[Midnight Rambler]

Bush, before:

“I believe it is the job of a President to confront problems, not pass them on to future Presidents and future generations.”

Bush, now:

The White House confirmed Wednesday that its new budget next month will not request a full year’s funding for the war in Iraq, leaving the next president and Congress to confront major cost questions soon after taking office in 2009.





Now the republicans are trying to tell us that Bush isn't a "real" conservative. He's not a Reagan conservative. Give me a break. He was the republican conservative wet dream when he was running the first time. When the second election rolled around everyone could see he was a disaster but the conservatives backed him anyway.


You can say what you want but Reagan never balanced a budget. Never even came close. Bush hasn't even tried. I do remember Clinton doing it. No, the republican congress didn't do it for him. If you do a little research you find that he had to shut down the government to force the republican congress to go along with a balanced budget.

Will your taxes go up with a Democrat in office? Yes. Becuase no matter who is elected the chickens are coming home to roost and you can't pay the bills by cutting your income (taxes).

All these 935 lies only became lies after the fact? If i tell you something that is untrue all I have to do is say I thought it was accurate when I said it? What ever happened to being accountable? I guess that's for "other people".
Since the study was done by not for profits we can safely ignore it. We all kno those not for profits are communist fronts.
Colin Powell went to the U.N. and in front of the world said the administration KNOWS that Iraq has WMD. He went on to show pictures of what turned out to be harmless industrial equipment. Do you think Powell acted without the approval of the president? Rice and Cheney stood in front of the cameras and stated that America was in danger of NUCLEAR attack. They were lying.
You think they were acting on "bad information"? That makes them the most incompetent administrationin history. They sent Americans off to die without knowing the facts. Which is criminal.
As I have stated several times before the French and Germans refused to join in the war becuase they knew Iraq had no WMD and they were mocked by the right wingnuts for it. Do you believe the U.S. intelligence services are not as good as the French and Germans?
Let's not forget that there were weapons inspectors ON THE GROUND in Iraq looking for WMD and finding nothing. Before they could complete the job Bush withdrew them and pushed the war.
We are there now and stuck with the mess but that doesn't excuse the lies that were told to get us there.
