Where’re the likes of Kennedy, Truman?
John Kennedy was the first president in the 20th century to reduce federal taxes to stimulate the economy and increase revenues to the US Treasury. Ronald Reagan and George Bush (43) also reduced federal taxes that resulted in a stimulated economy and increased revenues.
The budget resolution recently adopted by the Senate Democrats calls for a $3.3 trillion (that is with a T) tax increase over the next 10 years. That translated into an annual tax on each household of $2,641. That would be a tremendous drag on the economy.
 President Kennedy referred to the United States as “the Arsenal of Democracy.”
 The current congress, controlled by Democrats Nancy Pelosi in the House and Harry Reid in the Senate, lead the Democrats in their quest for defeat in Iraq. The Democrats of 2007 have voted for defeat rather than take a chance on winning.
 Where is John Kennedy when the Democrats need him?
 Where is Harry Truman when the country needs him?Â

Nagging questions over 9/11
W is now using 9/11 to bolster his veto of necessary funds to support our troops. That seems to require verification of the unquestioned answers from W, Rice, et al, about 9/11. W can scramble fighter jets in a matter of minutes to anywhere in the United States.
W, Rice, et al, knew of the first hijacked airliner 32 minutes before its crash into the World Trade Center. Not one fighter was scrambled before 9:38 am, after the Pentagon was hit. Is this just bungling like Katrina? W, Rice, et al, had specific hijack warnings in July and August. What happened? Richard Clarke constantly urged W, Rice, et al, to take effective action against Al Qaeda from January through September, but was told Iraq was the real threat!
Verification of the unquestioned answers would reassure our troops that their commander is acting in their best interests as he vetoes the funding necessary for their safety.
