Ted, It should have been obvious to you that there had to be cuts somewhere to pay for a war and tax cuts during a recession. OK, then suggest something which needs the money more than Iraq or the average taxpayer. Tell me which disaster will be the next one to hit American soil, and what we need to prepare for. Will it be another hurricane? Another 9/11? SARS II? A new shortage of flu vaccine? A sudden surge in global warming? A new oil embargo? You really don't care how I answer the question. In your mind, its much better that the rich have their tax cut money in their pockets and the rest be damned. Very easy for you to sit back now and say after the fact, "Oh yeah, we should have known Iraq had no WMD and that the levees in New Orleans needed to be upgraded." It doesn't take an expert to say that. Of course, the fact that it makes sense means nothing to you. I didn't know about the levee mismanagement until after they were breached. There is an extensive paper trail of the feds/Congress/Bush reneging on promised monies. Of course it doesn't help that LA and NO vote strongly democratic. That can make the difference between a $200+ million bridge in Alaska and no levee improvements in NO. Just fhe facts, Ten, just the facts. ted
