Wait until we see the price tag for Rita

Texans want to do things in a big way, and hitting our pocketbooks is going to be one of them. The GOP despises NO for federal relief, let's see what they do for Texas. Red states typically take from the blue states but this will push the red states beyond belief.

1. It will also kill any remaining support for the Iraq War

How will they convince people that we should still be pissing money away in that rathole.

2. Hell, if he doesn't dump a few Tax Cuts for the Rich after this...

...can you say "Economic Collapse"

3. Let's see now . . .

Let's see now . . .

1.) What the total federal deficit now? how many 100s billions?

2.) How about adding the costs of the Bush's Iraq War? $200, $300 billion?

3.) Then add the costs of Katrina . . . $200 billion? more?

4.) Then add the costs of soon-to-be damages of Rita? how many 100s billions?

What's your total amount of federal loan monies is America going to be indebted to China? How much of America will China thus own? For how long? Will our grandkids enjoy paying this too, that is, to China?

Can you spell s t u p i d ??? That's how Dumbya is spelled. And those who elected him. As the rest of the world laughs like hell at us and this brand of government called "cowboy neo-con" b*llshit.

4. But he wants tax cuts for the wealthiest to continue

What's a good song to sing for the banana republic he's trying to turn this country into?

5. "Trying to"?

Honey, we took aid from Indonesia.

Calcutta is laughing its ass off at us.

6. Good point.

7. The very same tune that was background music in the movie

.
The very same tune that was background music in the movie "Titanic," because that was the time, the era to which neo-cons such as George Walker Bush want us to return. Return to the time of two classes of people, the upper class and the lower class. No middle class!

Turn back the legal clock. Turn back the congressional clock. Turn back the clock when states couldn't effectively legislate against corporations, nor could the U.S. Congress.

The song sung when corporations ruled America, no middle class, no social programs to lift the "lower classes" from their misery . . . A time in which corporations had an all-powerful and all-authoritive means in law to do any damn thing that they wished to do. The U.S. Supreme Court opined over and over again that congress could pass no laws impinging upon corporations. That is, until Teddy Roosevelt started and his cousin Franklin Delano Roosevelt laid the ground-work of laws and regulations to curtail the abuse of corporations against Americans.

George Walker Bush and Company, those f*cking neo-cons, want to return America to pre-Roosevelt era. How off-tune can the song be?
