Subject: RE: BS: Administration's Lies
Well, if this was just about 9/11 or Iraq, it would be bad enough but it isn't. The Bush folks lie about everything.

"No Child Left Behind" is a good example. Bush sticks out his chest and talks about how he has reformed the eductaion system and say's that "no child will be left behind". Then he won't write the shecks to fund the program he pushed so hard to get thru Congress...

Perscription Drugs? The same. He pumps out his chest agan aqnd boasts how he has helped and boasts of how he is helping seniors pay for their perscription drugs. The implication is that seniors accross the board are being helped. But the fact is that the Medicare Reform Bill doesn't help seniors accross the board. Might of fact it may not end up helping but a tiny minority of seniors who are both eligible and can figure out the Bush pa-under-the-shell "discount card" sytem that the Republicans crafted in private session (no Dems allowed) that helps the drug companies and the insurance companies.

These are just a couple of examples. There are plenty more. Plenty!

Hey, I don't *mean* to sound so cynical about the Bush folks but, hey, they have earned this distrust and more and more folks are catching on.
