| #5 The only way the Democrats can impact the War on Terror is to cut off the resources to the War on Terror. This is stupid, but the Democrats are stupid people. In a tiny church this morning, two of the people on the prayer list were two young men in Iraq from that tiny town. If these people in that small church were in power, they would not hesitate to pass that funding, and they would ask, do you need more, because those two boys are in harms way. That is how out of touch these vile power mongers in the Democratic party are with the people of America. Sitting in that church listening to that small congregation praying for those two boys this morning and then reading that Pelosi is saying no more money and the discussion is over for 2007 is very stark indeed. Before the 73 year old minister began his Thanksgiving sermon, he told his congregation to "Pray, pray hard for America, because it is about to get rough here." |

| #4 Saw in the paper today the average representative gets $9.6 million in earmarks for pet projects. Members of the Appropriations Committee averaged $28.6 million. Murtha gets a whopping $180 million for his district and supporters. How about we eliminate all this pork? There would be plenty for the troops. |

| #3 Properly, Bush should direct the Pentagon to start immediately canceling non-critical military contracts in Democrat controlled districts. In turn, the Pentagon should start notifying those companies to apply fire to the feet of their congressmen and senators. He could also issue an executive order stopping the procurement of non-critical items such as mohair, which gives huge hunks of government money to Democrat contributors to produce, or NOT produce products that the Pentagon just warehouses and never uses. |

| #1 A bill passed this week by the House of Representatives ... all U.S. combat soldiers withdraw from Iraq by Dec. 15, 2008. Wouldn't that just be the nicest thing? It would be even nicer if the enemy would just play along nicely, too. Defense Secretary Robert Gates has warned that without a cash infusion, he would soon make plans to lay off civilian employees, terminate contracts and cut base operations. That's gonna make all kinds of nice |
