Note: If you look at the title area at the top of your browser, MSNBC has "Bush signs spending bill, jabs at Dems," not "criticizes"...one thing's for sure, though. He's a rough 'n' tumble, no nonsense, rootin' tootin' cowboy of a president. Just look at the photo if you need proof.

WASHINGTON - President Bush on Saturday signed a bill to prevent a government shutdown, but not without complaint.

Bush lambasted the Democrats who control Congress for sending him the stopgap measure while they continue to work on more than a dozen spending bills funding the day-to-day operations of 15 Cabinet departments. “Congress failed in its most basic responsibility,” the president said in his weekly radio address.

:scared:

The bills are tied up because Democrats want to add $23 billion for domestic programs to Bush’s $933 billion request for the approximately one-third of the federal budget funded by the yearly spending bills. Bush has threatened vetoes on most of the bills, eager to re-establish his party’s reputation as the place to go for fiscal discipline.

The president said Democrats are planning the “biggest tax increase in American history” to pay for the new spending.

How does borrowing and spending like a drunken sailor on shore leave give the GOP a reputation for fiscal responsibility...

Oh I get it...

Just say you want to cut taxes and that means you are fiscally responsible...
