pgIt's called Death & Taxes, but in honor of Fuhrer Bush I call it Death & Texas. See how switching the vowels makes it funny?
Notice the huge increases in military spending and the following decreases in Social and Health Programs:
Clean and Safe Water -9%
Administration for Children and Families -10%
Office of Violence Against Women -11%
Health Resources and Services Administration -13%
Federal Emergency Management Agency -14%
International Disaster and Famine Assistance -15%
Housing for the Elderly -23%
Community Development Fund -28%
Safe and Drug Free Schools Programs -38%
Keep in mind this budget was to be passed in October 2008, 3 months before Bush is due to leave office, look how he's gouged presidential funds to leave Obama high and dry:
Executive Office of the President -12%
Unanticipated Needs -54%
52 days of sabotage to go, I wish we could get this jerk out of office now. It's only going to get more heinous and brazen until Inauguration Day.
