Yeah, Flash, yer right... Bush will boast of how much has been "allocated" but not say much about how much has been "spent"... There's a big difference... And even that portion that has been spent we will one day find was redirected to fund something entirely different... The 2004 budget, for instance, contained $6.6B for FEMA... Problem is that FEMA just became a bank for the Department of Home land Security and the Department of Defense (think the Iraq War here...)...
