Day two, the SOTU promises, or, how quickly they forget
The House on Wednesday narrowly approved Congress’ first attempt in eight years to slow the growth of benefit programs like Medicaid and student loan subsidies, sending the measure to President Bush. The bill passed by a vote of 216-214, largely along party lines. Republicans hailed the five-year, $39 billion budget-cutting bill as an important first step to restoring discipline on spending. Democrats attacked the measure as an assault on college students and Medicaid patients and said powerful Washington lobbyists had too much influence on it.

I guess the lemmings believe in the Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny too. Oh, wait, they do believe in Santa Claus, because he is Jesus' General in the war on Christmas.

And what say our leaders Pelosi and Reid about these lies?
