Thank you for that sentiment. I agree with you that these are the highest priorities. Finishing the war in Iraq may not be a quick act. If we wish to leave a democratic republic, it will require dedication to assisting the Iraqis.

Reining in spending should be an immediate priority. The economy has been recovering nicely. It is time to stop spending additional incremental dollars.

On the radio tonight on a show called Money Talk the host was took a caller who suggested the President strongly request the line item veto. Properly used it could slow the financial bleeding. I worry though, because President Bush has not vetoed anything no matter how bad it was.
