Bush’s Permanent War Economy Must Crash (before it endangers you and your bank account even more)

“WAR is a racket. It always has been.” - Major General Smedley Butler

The Bush administration’s military adventurism and the economy are two issues expected to impact next week’s US midterm vote, yet we ignore their interplay at our peril.

Well, OK, you haven't.  But maybe that should be the consolation prize for the reporters who choose not to ask Bush about the White House Memo and collect their $1,000 reward from Democrats.com.  Here's how a quail-hunter dissects the holes in the reports of Vice President Cheney's Texas mishap with a shotgun.

MY VETO ON NSA SPYING: A STATEMENT OF THE OBVIOUS, and a call for the anthrax killer.

HOLDING HEARINGS ON THE MATTER OF WHETHER PRESIDENTIAL NSA SPYING HAS BEEN LAWFUL? There is NO QUESTION that these wiretaps were illegal.

To Senator Leahy: There is NO QUESTION that the president committed a high crime multiple times. No amount of hearings spouting propaganda to the contrary alters that fact. WE ALREADY KNOW CRIMES HAS BEEN COMMITTED. The hearings are a sinister attempt to weasel the president out of responsibility for them.

We are summoned to engage in a FALSE DEBATE, as no AMERICAN discussion can seriously consider the choice between DEMOCRACY and MONARCHY (an unconstitutional monarchy at that). We are summoned to hear the GOP tell us we must destroy our own Constitution. We are summoned to commit an act of treason.

Bush's Budget Favors Defense; Slows Medicare Spending

(WashPost) President Bush plans to propose a $2.7 trillion budget tomorrow that would shrink most parts of the government unrelated to the nation's security while slowing spending on Medicare by $36 billion during the next five years, according to White House documents.

The spending plan Bush is to recommend to Congress will call for the elimination or reduction of 141 programs -- for a savings of $14.5 billion -- across a broad swath of federal agencies, according to administration and congressional officials who have had access to budget documents in advance. Wide-ranging as they are, those cuts pale in comparison with the White House's attempt to carve money from Medicare -- the first tangible result from a vow the president made in his State of the Union address last week to constrain the massive entitlement programs for the elderly and the poor.
