What A Joke
Today's front page headline in the Houston Chronicle:
WHERE WILL THE BILLIONS TO REBUILD COME FROM - While Bush say U.S. programs will be cut, his staff talks about adding to budget deficit
Let's see...first, George Bush caused the hurricane (with help from Karl Rove). Then they called the helicopter pilots and personally ordered them to not pick up poor blacks stranded on the rooftops.
And now, GWB's recovery plan is criticized because all the members of the editorial staff of the Chronicle have turned into small-government conservatives.
Sure.

This sort of thing makes me apoplectic with rage because they are willfully misunderstanding what the President is proposing--to create taxpaying, homeowning citizens where once there were dependants who only took from the system. This will take time and money, but in the LONG RUN, which is what Bush thinks about, it will solve a problem and leave Louisiana and so the Union in stronger fiscal shape.
No, Bush is not a small-governement conservative--I'm not sure it's feasibly possible to be one in this day and age and actually hold federal power. But one thing I can tell you is that those jokers at the Chronicle wouldn't recognize a true small-government conservative if one bit them on the leg.
