GOP slashes the budget in the Senate - perks for Big Oil, cuts for the poor

If there was ever any questions left about their allegiances, it's painfully clear now. Give more handouts to Big Oil by opening up ANWR for drilling and don't ask Mega Corporate Farms to join in the cuts. Don't even bother wondering who's going to get stuck with the bill because we've been here too many times already. Heaven forbid corporate welfare would be trimmed or tax cuts for the wealthy because it ain't gonna happen. Hell, they're all busy setting new records of profitability so naturally it's going to be passed on to those not as fortunate as the typical GOP donor.

The GOP likes to slap themselves on the back and brag about their ability to show fiscal discipline. I'd just call it brutality and bullying the weak. Payback is going to be a bitch in 2006 and 2008.
