Oh, but he did give us that tax rebate

That was just a temporary 'loan' against the deficit spending. Now you get to pay interest on the tax 'rebate'. Move that to the negative column.

Ok, Karen, that two things, Vanilla Coke and the tax rebate...

I'm glad someone is keeping track.

On the downside, don't forget in addition to possible nuclear war, deception and secrecy, hiding 20 years' worth of similar activities away from prying prosecutorial eyes, SecDef declaring a lifetime of terror as a fine way to live ...

But why dwell on such things. Just go vote for "Four More Years"

You can add $235M to the national debt this morning to help get Jeb Bush re-elected.

Bush Promises $235 Million to Buy Out Mineral Rights in Fla. Areas
By Michael Grunwald and Eric Pianin
Deals to Block Drilling in Everglades, Gulf

Washington Post Staff Writers
Thursday, May 30, 2002; Page A01

President Bush announced two major deals yesterday to protect Florida's natural treasures from oil and gas drilling, pledging $235 million to buy out mineral rights in the cypress swamps of the Everglades and off the white-sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico...........

The coastal deal -- $115 million to buy back oil and gas leases about 30 miles off the shores of Pensacola -- is complete. The Everglades deal -- $120 million worth of cash or future drilling credits to retire mineral rights in the Big Cypress National Preserve and other public lands -- must be approved by Congress...


I'd like to know the background and who gets that $115M and $120M in cash. Though it could be protected information for national security reasons.

..."We hope this administration will treat other parks and refuges outside of Florida with equal respect and attention," said Munson, whose group recently gave the administration a D-plus for its stewardship of national parks.

I'll bet that Munson knows the answer to that implied question. Is Jeb running for Gov in any other States.

Hypothetical question...if Jeb were to lose, will the Administration's plan be re-assessed?
