Bush leaves children behind?
Tri-Valley Herald, CA - 1-6-04
Two years after the federal "No
Child Left Behind" education reform act became law, a principal co-author
said Monday the Bush administration is still failing to meet its goals.
"(M)illions of school children are being left behind every day because the
president and his congressional allies are more interested in rhetoric than
in reform," Rep. George Miller, D-Martinez, charged Monday, even as
President Bush defended the legislation during a visit to a St. Louis
school. ...

Working for Change, CA - 1-6-04
WASHINGTON -- One of the
mysteries that politicians and we commentators muddle as much as we clarify
revolves around this question: If George W. Bush is such a conservative, why
is he spending so much money and why are deficits so high?... |

"Patriotism, to me, is pulling together after
9/11 and going after Osama bin Laden. George Bush went after Saddam Hussein
without connections (to bin Laden). This country is still owed an explanation as
to why we went to war in Iraq." -Wesley Clark
Lisa,
This is a great exchange and had Russert (R-Puppy) on his heels:
MR. RUSSERT: General, you had this to say. "Having other people
tell you what to do is no substitute for having been there in the
arena yourself. ... You need a candidate who's got foreign policy
expertise." Do you believe that Howard Dean has the necessary
foreign policy expertise to be an effective president?
GEN. CLARK: Well, I'll say this to you, Tim. If George W. Bush is
qualified to be president of the United States, then any of the
Democratic candidates are more qualified. I just don't believe
that at this time in American history the Democratic Party can
field candidates who can only represent the education, health,
job and compassionate sides of the party. We have to be a
full-spectrum party. We have to deal with the challenges facing
America at home and the challenges facing America abroad. And
that's why I'm running.
