GOP Rep Wants Federal Funds To Make George W. Bush’s Childhood Home A National Park

[Lakhota]

By Josh Israel

Rep. K. Michael “Mike” Conaway (R-TX) has been among the most vocal critics of federal spending, claiming that massive cuts would actually create more jobs. But as he publicly pushed to stop “wasteful government spending,” he privately lobbied the National Park Service to turn the childhood home of former President George W. Bush into a National Park.

It is ironic that someone who is so concerned about reducing government spending would push for government funds to go to a federal takeover of the boyhood home of Bush — the President who vastly increased government spending, turned a surplus into a $1.4 trillion budget deficit, and caused many of the economic problems America from which is only beginning to recover.

The birthplace of the man who destroyed the economy and killed or maimed tens of thousands of Americans while watching half a million Christians forced from their homes.

No wonder Republicans want to "deify him".

Why not? We can use our funds that we send to the rest of the World while America suffers.

Iraq would be a great place for the George W. Bush National Park. Maybe Iraq would even pay for it...with oil revenue...

Clinton put a "work requirement" into welfare. No free money. Republicans spout all that stuff because many are morons. They were screaming that Obama wanted to end the work requirement and most didn't even know there was a work requirement. Most still don't.
