The country is going broke and Dick'n'George care more about giving the world to their organ grinders. Americans don't seem to be part of their vision anymore. They refuse to look after the poor and keep tightening the screws.

  victory over his Democratic adversaries. He has beaten back domestic spending 
  increases, thwarted an expansion of children's health insurance coverage, defeated 
  tax hikes, won funding for the war in Iraq and pushed Democrats toward shattering 
  their pledge not to add to the federal deficit with new tax cuts or rises in 
  mandatory spending.</FONT></FONT></P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/121507B.shtml"><FONT size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">    But the cost of those wins could be high, both for the federal debt and for

  resolute opposition to tax increases, could raise the federal debt this fiscal 
  year by nearly $240 billion. As Democrats struggle to meet his demands, they 
  are jettisoning renewable-energy and conservation incentives that Bush championed, 
  and they may ax some of his most cherished programs.</FONT></FONT></P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/431D4D86-C04D-42ED-81FC-C2A121CBFCFB/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
