		<description>&lt;strong&gt;In spite of&lt;/strong&gt; idiots like Bush, we people with autism are making tremendous gains.  And at the rate that our numbers are increasing, we&#039;ll soon be able to vote his kind out of office!  Sure hope I-Right-I isn&#039;t dependant on public opinion for his livelihood, because he&#039;s sure not getting our approval!</description>

		<description>The current administration is at such a point that I cannot have any level of trust in their actions. They have effectively pushed the middle class out to the edge of our population. This morning DELL announced that it will transfer an additional 20,000 jobe to India. The destroying of all the great services that educational professionals have develop is worse that just a sin it should be considered criminal. 

The focus of this administration does not have the needs of the American voter in mind but only that of further develping relations with economic sources that do not benefit the America population.


I&#039;ve worked with many Autistic children and have seen them do very well at both the HS &amp; College level. Working towards successful places in their community maintaining both independence &amp; dignity. Pres. Bush&#039;s photo ops are just more window dressing for an already disgusted country.

Is any political action being organized to protest these actions?</description>

		<description>I saw this basketball story on the news soon after it happenned. It is a super story. It sickened me to see G.W. meet that sweet kid and use him as a photo prop. I do not believe he saw it when it aired on the news - Rowe probably showed it to him with the idea this would help his poll numbers! He wept - My Ass he wept!</description>

		<description>This is endemic of the deep cynicism found in the Republican party. They are still sore over Clinton perverting their carefully-crafted phrases, such as &quot;welfare reform&quot;, and beating their asses red with them. To them, the true villains are these community leader do-gooders and the public at large who elected a philanderer over both Reagan&#039;s sidekick and a war hero who is now a viagra spokesmodel. No tactic is low or cynical enough to ease their pain and suffering. An elephant never forgets...</description>

		<description>I bet the kid was thrilled to death to meet the President of the United States. George is a kind and gentle man to spend his time like that. If thereâ€™s a sleeze factor here it belongs to you for pissing all over that boyâ€™s moment.

un&lt;strong&gt;I&lt;/strong&gt;ntelligent-un&lt;strong&gt;R&lt;/strong&gt;epentant-&lt;strong&gt;I&lt;/strong&gt;nbred,

&lt;strong&gt;These are your god Bushiva&#039;s priorities:&lt;/strong&gt;

The right wing has announced its commitment to repeal the estate tax and make the Bush tax changes permanent. A repeal of the estate tax would cost nearly $1 trillion over the first 10 years of enactment. 

In all, once made permanent, the tax changes will eventually add over $400 billion to the debt and deliver over $100 billion to the richest one percent of tax payers each year. Bush is also proposing a $439.3 billion defense budget, and $67 billion in emergency funds for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan on top of that.

To preserve his tax cuts for the rich and his costly defense programs, Bush is balancing the federal deficit on the backs of those who can least afford it. Some marginal spending measures that were recently rejected: $1.5 million for veteran&#039;s medical services, $2.8 billion for higher education funding, and $975 million for the widows and orphans of soldiers. Conservatives haven&#039;t been willing to march in complete lock-step with the Bush budget, however. Bush proposed cutting $7 billion from education and health care spending, hurting valuable programs that serve our nation&#039;s schoolchildren and cutting vital investments in public health...

		<description>Yeah, those of us from Rochester were thrilled to see Jason McElwain (J-Mac) get a little national spotlight when he had his moment on the court.  Having to see this photo-op moment was excruciating.

		<description>#47 - My heart goes out to you and your family, Noah Joad.   Thank goodness there has been so much focus and research on autism in the last few years.  Thank you for trying to educate the troll about the nature of autism.  Not a disease, not mental retardation, and usually not a physical health problem.  

My son is 24 now, and when he was diagnosed at age 7, the best our library could offer was advice for &quot;refrigerator mothers.&quot;  Fortunately I knew that wasn&#039;t me, so I never took it to heart.  If you ever get a chance to see Temple Grandin speak, please do.  Always follow your gut instinct.</description>

		<description>Itâ€™s mixed because so much is spent on those who are simply lazy and dishonest not to mention the crooks inside government who thrive on money that never gets to its intended destination.

Comment by I-RIGHT-I #50

&lt;strong&gt;So tell us oh Ignorant-Repugnant-Insect,

...is the TRILLION dollars we&#039;re spending on Iraqis- who hate your al Cracker Bushite worshipping guts- worth it?

...are we NOT spending this trillion to in essence turn Iraq over to Iran?

...would it NOT have been better to spend that money here in our own country?

...and isn&#039;t it true that...

...Being a hypocrite is a pre-requisite for being a loyal Bushite TRAITOR!&lt;/strong&gt;</description>

		<description>Aw c&#039;mon, people. It is totally unreasonable, unrealistic, and foolish to count on George Bush to keep his word on anything, except those things which will most damage our democracy and move us closer to a dictatorship. The man can&#039;t even LIE competently and most of America now recognizes him for the &quot;incompetent idiot&quot; that he is.

Republicans can point to him with pride, and brag that, &quot;George Bush is OUR idiot and no one else&#039;s!&quot;</description>

		<description>I am certainly glad that IRI is on the other side. Talk about crazy. We need to somehow showcase him during the upcoming elections.

You&#039;re doing just fine on your own loser. Leave it to the Filthy Left to use dead soldiers and autistic children to spread your gospel of misery to the masses.</description>

		<description>Sort of a mixed message there. I appreciate your sympathy for my son, and I assure you that he is really autistic. 

Comment by Noah Joad

It&#039;s a mixed message because there is never enough spent on social programs to suit liberals. It&#039;s mixed because so much is spent on those who are simply lazy and dishonest not to mention the crooks inside government who thrive on money that never gets to its intended destination. It&#039;s a mixed message because the left wing fucktards won&#039;t admit that when it comes to social spending George spends like a drunken socialists and unconstitutional set-asides and programs have not seen such increases since LBJ&#039;s Great Society Grab Bag. Again, I am so sorry about your kid. It&#039;s a damn shame.</description>
