Hah! Bush on the look out for excessive spending!

This is hilarious. Here is a pointer to a Reuters article that reads:

Signaling he is poised to take a tough line with Democrats over the budget, President George W. Bush met on Wednesday with congressional Republicans and renewed a threat to veto spending he considers excessive.

My question to Bush: How are you going to distinguish "new excessive spending" from the excessive spending that your administration has been engaged in for the last seven years?!?!?!?!?!??!?!!!

Every time Bush pretends to be a fiscal conservative, I have to laugh out loud!

TSA protects USA against kid's sippy cup!

Okay, its time to disband the entire Department of Homeland Security. The reason?

They detained a woman and her child at an airport security checkpoint because the kid had a sippy cup filled with water!

Read about the incident on Boing Boing:

<TSA detains woman over infant's sippy cup---I feel safer!>

There is no excuse for this and it just demonstrates how completely useless our approach to security has been since the Department of Homeland Security and the TSA were formed.

Unbelievable!
