This Is Fiscal Responsibility?

We all know billions of dollars have gone missing in Iraq and Bush hasn’t batted an eye about it. I suspect we will see the same lack of concern over the billions wasted in Iraq: After the United States has spent more than $5 billion in a largely failed effort to bolster the Pakistani military […]

We all know billions of dollars have gone missing in Iraq and Bush hasn’t batted an eye about it. I suspect we will see the same lack of concern over the billions wasted in Iraq:

After the United States has spent more than $5 billion in a largely failed effort to bolster the Pakistani military effort against Al Qaeda and the Taliban, some American officials now acknowledge that there were too few controls over the money. The strategy to improve the Pakistani military, they said, needs to be completely revamped.

Billions go missing in his foreign policy blunders and that’s ok, but spend money to help our children? That is uncalled for in the eyes of the Bush administration:

The Bush administration yesterday eliminated about $700 million a year in Medicaid reimbursements to schools, sidestepping an attempt by Congress to block such a move.

The new rule, issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, is expected to save the federal government $3.6 billion over five years, transferring those costs to school districts.

See $5 billion is nothing, but $700 million is too much! That is Republican math right there.

Tis’ the Season for Republican greed and lack of compassion!
