Where's the outrage?
I am quoting at length from the headline feature on NYC Indymedia:

"Bush & Co. Seek to Destroy Basic Standards in USA

The Enron-style hypocrisy and elitism of the Bush power-structure has convienently been obscured from public view in the recent scenes of military might. Video clips of Hussein statues pulled to the ground have been shock-&-awed across television screens in endless loops of ad-friendly bytes, while the city of Baghdad descends into complete lawlessness with practically no lights and little water.

Meanwhile in the US, the Bush Administration quietly works to dismantle bare-minimum healthcare for the very same people they claim great and humble thanks: US soldiers. This quiet, 'behind the scenes' effort, is one among a number of targets on the Bush & Co. agenda which seek to dismantle basic standards of life and liberty, in the US and abroad.

US Soldiers told to expect radical healthcare slashes from the Bush group.

GOP party leaders seeking to make Patriot Act I never-ending

Bush group seeks to sweep away environmental standards"

This pretty much sums it up, doesn't it? Right here is all the evidence you need to conclude that our pResident doesn't give a crap about our liberties, the (underpaid) US troops who are supposed to be fighting for such liberties, and the environment. Not to stifle free speech or debate, but how can you argue the contrary? The only way you would be able to is by ignoring the evidence. Because of this ignorance by the media and many citizens, Bush gets off easy. He's portrayed as a true American patriot, sending our troops into battle to defend our country and to liberate the citizens of Iraq.

Could you imagine the outrage from the Republicans if Clinton were still president, sent our troops into war, and then tried to cut their health benefits through slashing the Veterans Affairs (VA) budget? (The link provided by NYCIMC says that Clinton raised the VA budget when he was in office.) But if Bush does it, that's just fine. He wants to slash our liberties just like he slashes VA benefits, and that's fine with the rabid right, too.

How sickeningly hypocritical.
