Another day another proven Bush lie.
"Bush signed law blocking cheaper drug
WASHINGTON (AP)— Gov. George W. Bush, who promises to make prescription drugs more affordable, signed legislation making it more difficult for Texas doctors to prescribe a cheaper generic version of a popular blood-thinning drug.

The legislation was sought by DuPont Merck Pharmaceutical, the drug giant that manufactures the name-brand drug and tried to persuade states to block the new, generic competition. Just three states, including Texas, adopted laws."

And he promises prescription drug help for seniors. So who's going to pay the extra money? Tha tax-payers?
