The point is, we shouldn't be mindless spending. In a time of war, we should be cutting the federal budget where we can. And that includes alot of the tax-payer giveaways that Democrats love so much. Taking money out of the pocketbooks of hard working Americans will shrink the economy and discourage investments. That's a recipe for slowing growth. Cutting taxes is the best thing Bush could have done. The spending on crap is the problem. August is right. A line item veto would be a good deal in eliminating unneeded federal spending. And it wouldn't allow Democrats the opportunity to threaten our military with defunding in a time of war.
