I disagree. People have been presenting alternatives to him for years, yet he just continues to say "I will do what I want". The US spends more in funding of our military, than every other military of the world COMBINED, so I don't see cutting the funding as a bad thing. We're simply spending far to much on it. Of every tax dollar the American people pay, over 50 cents of it goes to the military alone. Less than 2 cents to our schools. Our priorities are fucked. If bush refuses to listen to the people of this country, and continues to "do what he wants" without consideration, then the they have to do SOMETHING. If taking his money out from under him is what it takes to force his hand, then that's what it takes.
Bush himself said in 2001 before ANY Of this happened, that the US needed to stop trying to rebuild other countries. That if we continued to do so, we would be in major financial trouble. Now look at us. How can you trust a man like that? There are no alternatives here. 2 years is too long. At our current rate, many analysts believe this country is on a path to doom, and if our leadership is saying things like "it's my decision. I will do what I want", then we have no choice but to stand together as the American people, and bring down these Tyrants. This is a Democracy, not a Monarchy.
If I were on the East Coast, I would have been with the 100,000 people who marched on the white house yesterday in protest. Never thought I'd say that, I mean, I voted for Bush the first time, and have always thought myself a Republican, but now with 2 kids, I fear for their future. So my ideas have changed, and I started to give a shit.
