QUOTE

President Bush sent a $2.9 trillion spending plan to a Democratic-controlled Congress on Monday, proposing a big increase in military spending.

While the budget includes billions more to fight the war in Iraq, the rest of government would be squeezed to meet Bush's goal of eliminating the deficit in five years.

Bush's spending plan would make his first-term tax cuts permanent, at a cost of $1.6 trillion over 10 years.

He is seeking $78 billion in savings in the government's big health care programs -- Medicare and Medicaid -- over the next five years.

Release of the budget in four massive volumes kicks off months of debate in which Democrats, now in control of both the House and Senate for the first time in Bush's presidency, made clear that they have significantly different views on spending and taxes.

"The president's budget is filled with debt and deception, disconnected from reality and continues to move America in the wrong direction," said Senate Budget Committee Chairman Kent Conrad, D-North Dakota.

House Budget Committee Chairman John Spratt, D-South Carolina, said, "I doubt that Democrats will support this budget, and frankly, I will be surprised if Republicans rally around it either."

Wait wait wait, didn't he say something about balancing the budget?

I'm not going to pretend I know anything about politics but isn't giving the sum of 2.9 trillion dollars to the guy that everybody hates a bad thing?

2. And this is coming from the self-proclaimed Sony fanboy who only plays mature rated games for hardcore gamers such as yourself.
3. you look for two minutes and we'll find one of your nice little "wii sux" comments
4. we've heard it too much from you, so go with your other "ps3 0wnz da wee" friends and leave the nintendo supporters alone for once
5. let me tell you about my sexuality even though nobody asked. . .

I'm gonna lock this and leave some other mod to read it since I don't want my good mood ruined.
