Get ready for the "fire sale". With the approach of King George's return to Crawford Texas, he will be fueling an tremendous amount of defense contract awards to his big business cronies. All will be done under the pretext of "fighting terrorism", but the real reason will be to lay the groundwork for his retirement to corporate america. I work in federal procurement and I have already seen the rush to place things on contract, circumventing competition requirements and the necessary justifications and authorizations for other than open competition. Unfortunately, I also have a family to support so I cannot place too large a magnifying glass on this abuse of power--and still feed my family. Counting the days until the twig is re-lanted in Texas!

I would like to review some of George Bush's Fuzzy Math budget. That seems like a huge amount to be spending on Defense. Yet we do nothing of the growing influx of Mexi-Cali immigrants who are moving to the Southwest through and across the California, Arizona and Texas Borders. What kind of defense are we talking about anyway? Because a peaceful invasion by our hispanic neighhbors to the south has already happened and continues to happen.
I strongly feel that these monies could be more appropriatley spent on domestic problems - such as feeding the hungry and housing the homeless.
Or maybe we are just being defensive as to why we aren't really gonna do anything about such issues?
