Just read this in The Washington Post. This is completely baffling. How can Americans still get behind this guy?
Here are some of my favorite quotes from the article:
"President Bush has requested billions more to prepare for potential disasters such as a biological attack or an influenza epidemic, but his proposed budget for next year would zero out popular health projects that supporters say target more mundane, but more certain, killers.
If enacted, the 2007 budget would eliminate federal programs that support inner-city Indian health clinics, defibrillators in rural areas, an educational campaign about Alzheimer's disease, centers for traumatic brain injuries, and a nationwide registry for Lou Gehrig's disease. It would cut close to $1 billion in health care grants to states and would kill the entire budget of the Christopher and Dana Reeve Paralysis Resource Center."
C'mon, America, this isn't rocket science. Could a fear-mongerer such as George Bush be any more obvious? Less money for the people. More money for the machine.
Also, you should know already that Michael Moore is making a documentary about the American Healthcare system.
