The Washington Post Op-Ed page becomes Propoganda Central for Hamas' Ismail Haniyeh.  Read how he gives the American people a guilt trip for supporting Israel.  Hey Haniyeh, not even a thank you for American and International support for Palestinian arms smuggling and praise for suicide bombers?

Whenever I see that the NY Times writes an editorial about the economy, I know I'm in for a good laugh.

A growing number of economists, most prominently from the Congressional Budget Office, point out that upsurges in revenue are also the result of growing income inequality in the United States, an observation that is consistent with mounting evidence of a rapidly widening gap between the rich and everyone else.

So the Times' hope is that the rich and corporations start paying less in taxes so that the middle classes will have a greater share of the tax burden in order to prove greater income equality?  In any case, they're missing the big point in that spending is way out of control (notwithstanding expenses related to the war or hurricane relief which don't seem to merit the Times' attention even though their elimination would bring the budget into balance, or close to it.)  If the Times considers these costs unavoidable and unqiue challenges for the Bush budget, that should be included in the analysis.  Those who claim that the cost of the war is avoidable are forgetting that they wanted to spend the same money, just "smarter".
