Jim,

Look what bonehead is up to now:

We are going to have tax cuts, and increased spending across the board. What does that spell?

1. Deficits.
2. Inflation.
3. High interest rates.

Typical Republican.

WACO, Texas (Reuters) - In a sea change for Republicans who once wanted to abolish the Department of Education (news - web sites), President George W. Bush (news - web sites) announced plans for a major increase in funding on Saturday.

In his weekly radio address, Bush also vowed to make the case for his across-the-board $1.6 trillion tax cut when he addresses a joint session of Congress on Feb. 27.

The budget he sends to Congress the next day would be ''responsible'' and signal taxpayers that his administration would be ``good stewards'' of their money, he said.

Bush, who made education reform the cornerstone of his presidential campaign and the focus of his first week in the White House, is scheduled to take his message to Ohio, Tennessee and Missouri on Tuesday and Wednesday.

``My budget for the Department of Education will have a higher percentage increase than any other federal department,'' he said. ``We'll pay for new testing programs and new reading and intervention programs, and new choices for parents with children in failing schools.''
