Those pesky Democrats
The Democrats are proving to be a troublesome lot as they begin their self-imposed "100 hour agenda." Trying to bring back checks and balances, institute 9/11 Commission recommendations that Bush didn't think were necessary and -- oh the audacity -- trying to institute some social change. Who do these people think they are?
First there was Senator Kennedy bitch-slapping Bush's plan for escalation in Iraq in front of the National Press Club. And then that crazy liberal decided today that it might be a good idea for Americans to have universal health care. I mean it's bad enough that we have a Republican governor wanting universal health care...but everyone knows that Arnold is nothing more than an actor who's married to the Kennedy's anyway.
But the real cake topper is the bill that passed in the House today calling for an increase of the federal minimum wage to $7.25 per hour. Are you serious? Why would anyone need that much money to live on? Have the millions of Wal-Mart employees out there not proven to us that you don't need high salaries or health care to survive?
What is happening to this country? At least Bush is sending more troops to help out the Iraqis. There may be hope yet.
