$92 billion more for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The 4th raise of the national debt ceiling under Bush, to $9 trillion dollars......What comes after a trillion? Since as long as these so-called conservative Republicans are spending our tax dollars to pad their pockets,pay back their campaign donors and cover their incompetent butts, we better get used to that new number. The question is what will come first, the new number after a trillion or economic collapse.....I didn't vote for Bush, and boy am I glad. For those who did they are getting what they paid for and more. The problem is the 53 million of us who didn't are really getting screwed. When will we ever be able to root for our country again? Oh Yeah, anybody noticed gas prices recently? It isn't even spring or summer when people drive more and they are close to $3 a gallon. the oil companies had record breaking profits last year. Chevron had a profit of $36 billion. We are headed for a summer driving season of over $3 a gallon. The oil companies have to grow their profits this year, that's a business given........Gee I almost forgot, besides being the "war President" Bush and his family are oil men. Remember I didn't vote for him.
