Will Takes Bush to the WoodShed

Get your minds out of the gutter!

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...-2004Feb6.html

Theme -- GWB needs to shape the F up, or the R's might lose.

Quotes include:

"After the war, in May, on Polish television, President Bush said, 'We found the weapons of mass destruction. You know, we found biological laboratories.' No, we did not. 'So what's the difference?' said the president in December about the failure to find WMDs, because 'if [Saddam Hussein] were to acquire weapons, he would be the danger.' Such casualness, which would be alarming in any president, is especially so in one whose vaulting foreign policy ambitions have turned his first term into Woodrow Wilson's third term, devoted to planting democracy and 'universal values' in hitherto inhospitable places."

And...

"It is surreal for a Republican president to submit a budget to a Republican-controlled Congress and have Republican legislators vow to remove the 'waste' that he has included and that they have hitherto funded. The president does indeed propose killing 65 programs and substantially curtailing 63. But even if Congress fully complies, which it won't, the savings would be just $4.9 billion -- a rounding error in a $2.4 trillion budget. That $4.9 billion would pay less than six days' interest on the national debt."

I like it that they're nervous.
