Just when you think Bush really screwed up, the hits keep coming
Rep. George Miller: Bush Proves How Far Removed He Is.

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, President Bush proved once again just how far removed he and his Administration are from the life experiences of most Americans.

The President issued an executive order on Thursday that makes it possible for federal contractors to pay extremely low wages to workers hired for the Gulf Coast rebuilding.

Bush accomplished this by suspending the 1931 Davis-Bacon law, which says that federal contractors must pay their workers a “prevailing wage” on construction projects.

2. George Bush hates poor people, working
class people and middle class people. He tolerates upper middle class people. He loves low class people with lots of money. (Like himself).
