"Spend, but Don't Tax? Run, but Don't Cut?"

The Rove spins emerging from the current Camp David photo op are bound to promote the usual vicious attacks on Democrats on the home front and on Iraq.

In response to the disastrous deficits that they have been building up that threaten our most fundamental public services ranging from Social Security and medical care to keeping our bridges and highways in shape, the Bush Republicans will be replaying their shopworn 'tax and spend' theme.

And WE shall be accused of 'cut and run' from the mess that THEY have created in Iraq. Needless to say the ones that they want to keep there to be slaughtered are not (with very few exceptions) their OWN sons and daughters, but rather the Americans who have sought to serve our country honorably and who have found themselves trapped in a hell that offers no end in sight.

The Republicans will be running as usual-- in their own interest. And they will be cutting essential funding for us here and for those all too vulnerable over there -- their announced game plan is to 'repeal the New Deal'. But let us not forget the economic disaster that brought us the New Deal in the first place -- the Republican Crash of 1929! The stock market these days seems to be smelling the smoke of the fires the Republicans have ignited in our economic basement.

Perhaps the economic gods have had it with our misbegotten neocon monstrosity?
