giving all these tax cuts to the rich, thus killing the tax base. and w/the high debt, making it hard for the dems to borrow $ to fix all the problems Bush has caused.
high debt, less income, destroying the military.
Bush knows the Repubs are going to lose the 2008 race. He's going to make it as tough on Dems to run the country by scorching it.
Agree/Disagree?
ah.. North Korea.. more continuance of Bush's scorch earth tactic
he knows he's going to be a lame duck 2006 - 2008 when the dems take over part (if not all) of congress.
so his hail mary pass.. threaten North Korea with empty threats like 'stop nukes or else.' it's a win-win for him. if north korea blinks and stop, bush gets all the credit about being tough. if they call his bluff (like they just did), it doesnt matter.
