reduce the defense budget of "cold war weapons that we don't use", eliminate inefficiency in the medical industry, and he is going to raise taxes. and there is the $250K limit again.

i had a feeling the "savings" on the deficit would come out of military budgets...

We have GOT to take over at least one house of Congress in 2010.

What checks? I thought there were no stimulus checks, just $13 a paycheck less on taxes paid?

I feel so much better now. He won't raise our taxes til we go over $250k. How reassuring.

The market will tank tomorrow. Glad we didn't buy any stocks today.

"hide the price"of the war? congress appropriated every penny. a congress that was led by your party for the past two years.

So, after we have a few cities go to 4000 degrees, we'll start researching and developing a response weapon so we can retaliate.....in 10 ****ing years.
