Granny can’t get her medication but Paris can keep her tax cut.

"Cutting the deficit during a time of war requires us to restrain spending in other areas," Mr Bush said in his weekly radio address.

Mr Bush said the budget for the year starting in October 2007 would underline the need to tighten spending on domestic programs - including on education, energy and health.
The Washington Post newspaper said domestic spending would increase by 1% - less than inflation.

What this means is that the middle class working people of America (i.e. YOU unless you make several million dollars a year) will continue to bare the brunt of this “war on terror”. We will continue to see the cost of our everyday necessities go up in order to fund the brutal illegal war in Iraq.

What really makes me angry with this whole thing is that the “media” is complicit in the raping and pillaging of our nation. The average American will not see the connection between the war, the profits for the elite few, and the tax cuts for millionaires that are bought with the blood and backs of our middle class workers.

WE are the soldiers in the streets of Iraq and Afghanistan. WE are the people working 2 and 3 jobs just to maintain the standard of living we had 10 years ago. WE are the ones who will be choosing this next year between diapers for the baby or glasses for our 8 year old. WE are the ones PAYING for Bush’s “tax cuts” for the RICH.

Does Paris Hilton REALLY need to keep a tax cut when the rest of us are paying for it?

Am I the only one who sees the problem with this picture?
