$20K per home is a lot of beer money. Will the big spender be reelected is the question.

I am getting increasingly disallusioned with Mr. Bush--his budget, his growing the federal government and his domestic policies, e.g. amnesty to illegal Hispanic aliens. I don't think his "war on terrorism" is going to carry him through the next election.

I guess Newt's smaller/more constitutional gub'mint is out the window eh? Time after time the Repubs prove that I did the right thing in leaving that party. Of course, the "hangers on" will cry, "Stay and change the party from the inside."

Yeah, right. They won't come around until they realize that no one is voting for them anymore.

If anyone thinks the President controls the budget they are ignorant. The President gives congress his wish list and they grant some of his wishes and then some. If bush submitted a budget that was only 1 Trillion congress would bring it right back up to over 2 trillion.

There is no white horse that will ride in and cut the budget. Reagan signed 8 budgets and every one was bigger then the previous years--congress made him do it to get what he wanted funded and Bush is doing the same thing !

If you want a smaller budget the only way this will ever happen is if the real conservatives take control of 60% or more of the congress !

Impossible contradiction in terms.
