Hope and change!</blockquote> Which is it? Liberals on one hand say that the Bush administration has been virtually at war with eachother, and on the other hand that dissent is not tolerated -- whichever suits their purposes at the time. You cant have it both ways. And when did Bush kick anyone off anything? Even when Helen Thomas retired they didn't kick her off the WH press corps. Indeed, they gave her a permanent front row seat. The only person I remember the Bush administration kicking off anything was Jeff Gannon for daring to report the administrations side of the story, which the MSM didn't want people to hear.

For far too many in government the saying goes that there is no government program that failed, only one that was underfunded. When was the last time that you heard of government employees being laid off due to budget problems? Every president in my time has come to power with the promise that they would balance the budget .............. and, all have failed.
