Since George Bush has taken office, he's allowed the medical industries to raise their prices way beyond the rate of inflation, making health care more precarious every year. Everyone in my extended family has good health care, as far as I know. Since Bush came into office, educational costs have been inflating dramatically while the government dithers and simply passes the costs on to students (and their parents) in the form of loans that in former generations were grants or even free tuition. I'm out of school, and my three nieces have either been to college or are in college. My sister and her husband have done very well as architects in Teddy boy's Seattle over the past 20 years, so they can afford it. So that aint hurting my family. Since Bush has come in to office, the national debt has ballooned to obscene levels. You kids and grandkids are going to be saddled with paying for the tax breaks the rich are raking off the table today. How fair is that? I don't know how fair it is, but GB hasn't hurt my family as far as I can tell. GEORGE BUSH IS HURTING YOUR FAMILY in as many ways as he can figure out, as long as there is a buck in it for his own friends. No, he isn't.

GEORGE BUSH IS HURTING YOUR FAMILY in as many ways as he can figure out, as long as there is a buck in it for his own friends. Your comment suggests his MO is to hurt American families. I think the reality is that he is promoting his political agenda and ideology while helping his friends to profit. In the process of doing that, he hurts this country and the people who reside within it. To suggest he is going out to intentionally hurt specific American families undercuts your argument and allows righties the opportunity to discredit you. The truth is the neocons could care less about the average American family and spend little time thinking about their welfare except in a very abstract sort of way. ted
