It's amazing. Bush is a Lame duck president and there hasn't even been a replacement elected yet. Come on, he can't even keep people from his own party in line. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM)  Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

I agree....it seems like everything that comes across him is vetoed. He was here in Houston yesterday (along with San Antonio and somewhere else later in the day), and people were WICKED annoyed because they couldn't park for work LOL |

Of course that wouldn't be a problem if we weren't involved in a war that's cost us trillions. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM) Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!

Examine the bill for a minute:
QUOTE The water bill authorizes popular projects in states across the country, including hurricane recovery efforts in Louisiana, environmental restoration in the Florida Everglades and flood control in California. But it does not actually appropriate money for the projects, which must be done in spending bills. I'm fine with all of those things, what I'm not fine with is the fact that the money will be turned over directly to the state and they will appropriate how it's actually used, not the federal government. Which means they could use it in Louisiana to build a new sports arena and make it "hurricane safe"  Stop trying to point the finger at Bush and start examining the matters at hand. Iraq and the war on terror may have a place but not in the discussion of a bill that will essentially give states money to blow on whatever they deem necessary. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |

Well, no they don't in light of turning money over to state governments. But remember that I was responding to dogmeat's claims that he was doing this to prevent Congress's overspending. -------------------- QUOTE (Spectatrix @ Oct 13 2006, 09:51 PM) Holy shit, pebkac, you're awesome!
