President Bush veto on the kids health care bill

Great news: he’s willing to fund Iraq, BUT, he draws the line on poor kids. Fact: 61% of Republicans liked the bill, and wanted to see it pass. However, Bush can’t stand the thought of helping people in the US, if he’s not personally making money on the deal. Four vetos, and this one goes out to the children. Sickening.

Or am I off my rocker? You tell me.

Answer #1

Politicians: It appears ‘looking after the best interests of the people’ is not even on their list of priorities anymore.

Answer #2

Any government body that is elected by the people for the best interests of the people do well to listen to those people. Charity begins at home. All the money that is being squandered across the globe to foreign interests makes me ill. Tell the homeless guy on the street that there’s no money to help him but we will be sending millions in aid to other countries. It doesn’t make sense. Yes there are viable and very needy people out there in the global community but when one of the richest countries in the world shuts the door on its own citizens there is something most definately wrong.
