I understand he wants to give a tax rebate to the wealthiest of Americans. He wants to create a larger cabinet, something he said he didn't want earlier. I understand he doesn't care if the rest of the world is supporting him in his war. (Perhaps the loudest applause of the evening from the carefully selected audience). I understand that he wants partially-privatize Social Security. That will cost the taxpayer about a trillion dollars. He wants medical benefits for wealthy seniors (those making over 75 grand per year). He wants alternative energy sources and will create another meaningless cabinet post (again something he said he didn't want to do) and it will have as much meaning as the current posts. As to the tax rebate (92 million getting $1,100 a piece, who does he think he's kidding? Karl Rowe embodies the ghost of Lee Atwater I think I understand Bush pretty well.
