Yeah. The article really does jab at Bush for spending so much money WHEN CONGRESS IS FREAKING DOMINATED BY REPUBLICANS!!! It's really pissing me off. Now is the time for conservatives to work their magic, but it's just not happening.
The sad thing is, I don't think the Republicans will ever go back to a traditionally conservative platform.
Of course, this is probably because Bush wants to get re-elected. Cut some programs, and people benefiting from them won't like you (as well as some other concerned people).
In any case, the end of days may be coming. I get the strange feeling that if we had a Democrat in the White House he would be spending less.
Anyway, I'm sure that Kevin doesn't like the idea of a Constitutional amendment that forces the government to balance it's budget.
