I agree, and remember even JFK cheated on his wife.

I don't believe Head Start is going to close up. No way. And I totally disagree with all of this Bush Bashing, but you all are entitled to your opinion. The man is not perfect and will not do everything the way you all want it, or how I want it. I don't see how Clinton did much for our country, except closing needed military bases and paring down our Intelligence agencies and FBI, which, in my opinion, contributed greatly to the 9/11 tragedy. No, I am not totally blaming Clinton for 9/11. That would be stupid. But, I feel he did, even if unintentionally, have a hand in it.
And BTW, I am a registered Republican and I am in NO WAY rich. To make such generalizations about Republicans is like saying ALL democrats or liberals are tree-hugging, anti-family, and immoral.(which is in no way true)
Oh and even though it might not have been much, did any of you who hate Bush so much, donate your tax rebate from last year, or your additional child tax credit check to a charity or give it back to the government? Just wondering. But hey, you all can say what you want and I will say what I want. I refuse to get into a big hairy argument. No time for crap like that. 
I will vote for him again, should he run. Unless another candidate is better, IMO. I vote the person, not the party.

Just FYI there was no ADDITIONAL tax credit...it was an advance tax credit (came out of your income tax refund for the next year)..when it comes time to get your income tax refunds next year there will be NO child tax credit. So of course I would not donate it, becuase it was already MINE..it was taken from MY income tax refund..yes may have been early but was still mine!!

Didn't Bush just recently apoligize by admitting on National television that Saddam had nothing to do with the September 11th attacks. Don't anyone quote me because I'm not sure of the exact story but I just read something that was posted at a Yahoo group I belong to pertaining to it.

Head Start is a federally funded preschool. Most of them do receive funding from local organizations also. Head Starts are usually funded through another organization like United Way, that is how they receive their federal grants. Head Start is a predominately low income preschool (we're talking way below the poverty level), but they are required to accept any child on an IEP and 15% of their classroom population is to be over income (this includes kids on IEP's)
I am involved with Head Start as a volunteer and employee. Yes, Bush is trying to do away with Head Start. Due to budget cuts last year, our council had to close 2 Head Start locations. We also had to cut staff and have less money for our classrooms.
Bush is cutting social programs left and right. Last year he cut all funding to energy assistance programs. So they no longer get federal funds only what can be raised locally.
I think it is awful. We are billions of dollars in debt and now they are saying by the end of the war it will be almost $500 billion dollars in debt. That is just wrong. We have people starving on the streets here, people without medical insurance, homeless families, but we can give tax breaks to the rich and support a war.
