Whatever happened to the idiot plan to give all seniors free medicines?

[K-oneTexas]

Government should not be in the business of paying for drugs anyway.

>>>>>The budget that Bush is to recommend to Congress will call for eliminating or reducing 141 programs, for a savings of $14.5 billion...

$14.5 billion of a $2.7 trillion dollar budget.

The trillion dollar Bush Medicare Prescription Drug Program is alive and well.

Thanks to Bush and the GOP Congress, big government Republicanism is alive and well.

65% of the annual Bush federal budget is spent on "Human Resources", aka. welfare entitlements.

Too little too late.

[Skooz]

It's a live and well and will haunt taxpayers for generations.

Many seniors don't even want the silly thing, but government keeps bullying them to get with the program.

It might be an idiot plan to give all seniors, who have paid into the system all their working lives, free medicines but then what do we call the plan that provides free total medical care to 20+M (number quoted by Rep. Tancredo on 1/05/06) illegals. Oh, never mind, I think I know the answer to that question. It's called "Look the other way" or also known as "Pretend to be doing something" while they swarm across our borders to loot and pillage our infrastructure and basic services.
