Numbers and Money

According to CBS News, President Bush has an approval rating of 34%. Cheney had an 18% approval rating. Whoa!

It seems like Halliburton and its subsidiaries can get any money they want from the Bush-Cheney administration. Even though an audit found some overcharges, they'll get most of their money anyway. The New York Times has the story.

Veterans face more medical benefit cuts. An administration that says it supports the troops is so willing to cut benefits for the vets. Shouldn't they honor their service and sacrifice? Shouldn't money be given to our troops instead of Halliburton?

Sen. Rick Santorum (R-PA) is the center of controversy again. This time it involves his "charity" and the mortgage on his house in Virginia.
