Let Them Eat Cake So while the Texas 11 now hunker down and wait to see what Rick Perry does next, and California voters await to see if Arnold Schwarzenegger will actually debate...and if and if and if....Hurrican Isabel makes landfall...President George Bush interrupted your Sunday Night Football telecast with an address to the country about the money required to rebuild Iraq and Afghnistan...all $87 billion of it. And Congress is ready to give him the cash if he explains what his buying with this allotment. So it would appear we are back to the 1980s except.... The Washington Post reports that a new poll says that the majority of the 'merican people want Bush to not spend the money...or if they do...repeal the tax cut. So it appears that while there are significant gradations on who is more likely to support it: Republican men to Democratic women...the telling development is that independents are not behind it, and men are almost evenly divided. Though it would seem unlikely that Bush is all done for now...he definitely has created a serious monster that apparently is turning itself loose. And this time, Bush can't escape by saying "Let the taxpayers eat cake". |
