My first diary, so please forgive any goofs.
Wow! Fine editorial in todays Pittsburgh Post Gazette re. Bush's budget proposal.
It starts out:
President Bush has dropped another limp and cowardly budget on the American public.
Gets better from there!

I developed a habit of scanning the editorial and letter pages of various US newspapers during the last presidential election campaign. Just getting an overview, a taste of sentiments out there.
The tide may be turning, particularly since Katrina, and most particularly since the State of the Union speech and now this budget proposal. When the Peoria Journal Star features letters from the local who are p***ed about the deficit and the waste in Iraq, that is a sign and a portent.
