Chimp-sucking RWEs, like yourself, of course attribute the $26B "winfall" to the tax cut and not to the "noise" in govt. revenues. Compare that to the total budget and it's minuscile. Tell me, flopsy, what's the annual budget deficit? Flopper, what's the annual cost of the Iraqi War and how could that money be used to fund healtcare, education and social-assistance for those who can't help themselves?

All those numbers maybe good sounding and may sweep you off your feet. But tell me how it translates to the lot of US citizens being improved. The senior citizens are confused and afraid as hell because of changes to their Medicare. The California governor signed a bill to provide for emergency situations in Medicare. The countries infrastructure is in decay. tell me which road is being repaired, which bridge is being repaired which has the added benefit of job creation. No doubt jobs are being created but tell me what the average wages of those jobs are. We know the average wages of jobs of software engineers and these jobs are being created in India. Your post serves as a mouthpiece for the Bushies who are in vain to claim credit. A "Mission Accomplished" mentality where you claim success prematurely and sometimes even in the face of failure.
