First, request $190 billion in additional funds for the war in Iraq....
Then, deny ten million children health-care by calling it "excessive spending."
*A day in the life of President George W. Bush, fearless promoter of photographic symmetry
Did you know?
Seventy-percent of Americans supported the State Children Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). Forty-three governors and sixty-eight US senators also... acknowledged children.
Alas, the "compassionate conservative" is not down with SCHIP. According to GWB, it's too costly and lingers as "an incremental step toward the goal of government-run health-care for every American."
Meanwhile, little Togan sells lemonade on the lawn of County Hospital, saving his dimes for that final brain transplant.
Forty-one days of Iraq War funding playfully tucked into the g-strings of military contractors could fund health-care for ten million American children without it -- for a year. In the vetoed bill, four million children without access to health-care would have joined 6.6 million already enrolled.

(A cigarette tax would have been raised to fund the expansion.)
