Congressman Barton seems to live in a different world than the rest of us.
To read his disappointment of the Democrats, click
here.
The REAL reason Democrats (or Congress) did NOT agree to finance more taxpayer dollars for the seemingly endless war and occupation in Iraq is because there are no detailed priorities, REAL game-plan or timeline set by the administration to justify those dollars.
What should congress do, spend an infinite amount of our tax dollars without making an intelligent plan on how to spend them?
How foolish and counterproductive would that be?
We've seen from past experience how our administration can spend TRILLIONS of our dollars without a good return on that money.
If they did that in the corporate world, our officials would be fired!
I believe that if the President and Congress set forth a good plan with realistic priorities and a step-by-step process for attaining those objectives, more tax dollars would be approved.
Unfortunately, the Bush administration has NOT changed its mentality or approach, so this time I'm with Congress and/or Democrats for NOT approving those tax dollars!
