Bush berates Congress over their continued 'pork' diet

Pres. Bush continues to berate congress over their continued practice of loading up spending bills with pork (and not the other white meat kind....)

Just in case the neighborhood Bush bashers missed the news, try here: Bush hits Congress' continued pork

Suffice it to say that whether it be Democrats or Republicans in charge of the commitees and bill writing in congress, congress still finds way to load up the bills with plenty of pork.  Of course it's all Bush's fault that he signed these pork laden bills and didn't shut down the government and deny those that rely upon the checks and benefits they get from same, right???

I would like to see fewer pork projects but they are far less then when the GOP controlled Congress. The other change under the Democrats is that they show WHO proposed each pork project. When the GOP ran Congress they kept that a secret!

With the $4 trillion dollars of Debt Bush added he has no right to talk about spending by the Democrats. He added 4 times more debt in his term then Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Johnson and Carter COMBINED!

And you've voted for all of the big spenders along the way, haven't you?

You most certainly would love to vote for Ms. (potential) big(gest) spender of them all -- Hillary.

I voted Republican up to 2000. I did not vote for Big Spender GWB! I did vote for Reagan and saw how much of a mistake that was after he added $3 Trillion to the debt.

I will not vote for ANY of the GOP candidates. I would prefer Edwards but if Clinton gets the nomination I will vote for her so we do not get another conservative in the White House!

Oh yeah, you'd love nothing better than a spend-a-holic liberal running things wouldn't you?

YOu do know how to bait the troll, dont you?  The simple truth is he cant debate anything as he has to constantly contradict himself just to bash Bush.

My son and I just saw Dewey Cox.  The movie was not bad.  At the end (like all those types of movies), they had a runner on what happened after the movie - seems he died 3 minutes after his last concert.
