The $87 billion included $67 billion for the "war" and $20 billion for
"reconstruction", i.e. pork, much of which was for Haliburton.
First, let's dispel this Halliburton lie that the Dems keep chanting as if
that mantra had some magical properties.
Why am I not surprised.
Because you're an idiot? Actually, Cheney is pretty smart. He got out
when he realized the media were after him and his buddies at
Haliburton. I guess he doesn't ever speak with his buddies there. They
have no influence on him because he'll never have anything to do with
them when he's finally finished ****ing up this country. Sure,
whatever.
What would you be saying about a President who vetoed a spending bill
to "support the troops" rather than roll back a tax cut?
So when did he veto this bill? I didn't see that.
It is indeed unfortunate that Bush hasn't vetoed a few spending bills. The
Republicans in Congress have continued the Dems' long-standing pork for
votes policy. But the bill to fund the troops was not a good place for Kerry
to throw his temper tantrum over the Republicans' not going along with the
Dems' plan to raise taxes.
Very unfortunate. Keep electing Republicans in both houses and the
presidency, and that's what you get.
