I really, really really hope they get the numbers in the House to override the Shrub's veto on this.

A sure sign this country is going to Hell? Dubya can say this:

“It is estimated that if this program were to become law, one out of every three persons that would subscribe to the new expanded Schip would leave private insurance,” the president said.

and this:

that it would steer the program...toward covering children from middle-class families.

...and make it sound like a bad thing. Yes, because god forbid the few middle class people who truly exist (not the six-figure types who have to make that much to afford the "middle class life" as was) not be worried about keeping their children healthy. You know, covering their kids doesn't mean that they aren't still at the mercy of their employer and the benefits provided through their jobs. You will not have the ignorant masses getting uppity with the bosses when their own health could still suffer if they were to lose said jobs. They will still worry about that; they just want not to have to worry about their children suffering for it.

Fucking Bush. This is the guy who really cares about TEH BEBBIEZ and he does this? Shit-eating motherfucker. GET AN INOPERABLE CANCER AND DIE. Preferably after, somehow, losing the INSURANCE FOR LIFE you've gotten for being the WORST president pretty much ever.

You don't remember this hoopla after Katrina? He said Bush doesn't care about black people.

I missed a lot of the hoopla around and about Katrina as I was on vacation at the time in Hawai'i. They don't really do news outside of Hawai'i. There were tiny articles in the papers there about the problem and the only other news I caught was in the airports on the way to and from. I really missed most of Katrina's immediate impact.
