Not Your Sweetie

Robert Scheer on W's demand:

How can the president tell us with a straight face that we taxpayers have a patriotic duty to cough up
$87 billion more to enable him to sink us deeper into the Iraq quagmire of his making? That's a lot of money on top of the
$79 billion already appropriated by Congress in April -- enough to bail out California and every other state experiencing a
budget crisis because of economic problems this president has only exacerbated. Shouldn't those who warned against
Bush's folly at least qualify for another one of his signature tax rebates?
