Good. I'm sick of them always throwing the tax burden on us sinners. Cut the funding for the war and you'll have the money!

what the hell? is there still a war going on? DISTRACTIONS! using children to gain support. its SICK and you people are falling for it. Bush probably has financial backers from philip morris so they know he Has to Veto it. So they're trying to save Americas children and Bush is a monster that won't give them the power. When everyone already hates Bush so what does it matter anyway? Political posturing at it's worst.
