Both the articles you posted are VERY Biased! Verterans against the war are obviously going to slant any stories about Bush. While they claim the House may be cutting money from a PROPPOSED budget, this does not mean a reduction in current benefits, in fact, spending might INCREASE! How? If spending is now 'X' and Bush want's to raise it 1 million but the house cuts his desire by $500,000 it's an INCREASE, No? (numbers are for example only)

And about the Schools, The money in question seems to go to the school district NOT the children of vets. If this is a 'true' cut, it should be offset by 'the largest increase in history for education' that Bush and Kennedy pushed through congress over a year ago.


I don't have time to research all of these numbers but I've seen Democrats call a 'reduction in the rate of growth' a 'cut' way too many times to believe the links you posted on blind faith. Now, i'm not saying your a democrat but. if you think they are better for defence then by all means vote for them. Or perhaps you think the 'Green' party is a better choice
