Bush budget is pure militarism.

Militarism is growing in America. The recently proposed budget by Bush is proof positive. Bush is asking for $235 billion over the next two years to fund his manufactured wars. He is also asking for permanent increases in troop levels.

And how does he intend to pay for it? Cutting necessary programs to the bone.

We are the sole superpower in the world. Our military is already second to none (when used to fight a war; not so great at babysitting). The past five years have proven that our only shortcomings are in our decision-making. We don't need more troops. We need better leaders.

We were promised this war would pay for itself? So where's all that money going...?

Beware the growing militarism. Heed Eisenhower's warning about the growing military-industrial complex. Heed Orwell's warnings in 1984. They have come true.
