What's Bush's thing against kids and farmers?
“WASHINGTON -- President Bush will propose a 2006 budget today that, despite record spending of about $2.5 trillion, will be the most austere in years, calling for billions of dollars of cuts that will touch poor people on food stamps and farmers on price supports, children under Medicaid and adults in public housing.

Even before the budget is officially sent to Congress, resistance to Bush's proposals was welling up Saturday from interest groups that benefit from federal aid and from the members of Congress who represent them.
Powerful agricultural interests were among the first to label Bush's proposed budget cuts as unfair and shortsighted. Farmers receive about $15 billion annually in federal farm program payments to help produce major commodities, including corn, cotton, rice and wheat.”

Conservatives claim that they are pro-child whenever they talk their self-righteous anti-choice agenda, yet they’re willing to deprive real children of the medical insurance.

Bush was considered to be a man who supported producers such as farmers. Yet here he is proposing that we hurt our farmers. These are the people who feed us for God sakes!

You know, the American people might have voted for that evil man, but he does not care about the American people.

1. Bush Is Remaking America By....
...tearing down all that has been gained in the past 100 years.

Each day, for the next 4 years, will be a sad day in America.
