Here is a bit from a speech given today by Howard Dean, addressing President Bush's decision to cut soldier's pay because Bush has given away so much in tax cuts.

quote:
"...we are now facing a ludicrous situation in which Vice President Cheney will reap a $116,000 per year tax windfall, and yet our soldiers--on extended deployments and tragically dying every day--are facing pay cuts of $225 a month...."
