President Bush said Wednesday he'll submit a proposal to balance the budget in five years and exhorted Congress to "end the dead of night process" of quietly tucking expensive pet projects into spending bills.Bush must now contend with a Democratic congress in order to succeed in these noble goals of eliminating pork and balancing the budget. Oh, it would be sooo much easier and faster for him to do if both houses of Congress were controlled by his own party for say ... oh, I don't know, six years.
Because, if nothing else, the Bush presidency and the Republican party have become the very epitome of fiscal responsibility.
