Preznit Dimbulb's no-brainer policies
Deny help for brain-injured soldiers, save a brain-dead woman

This pandering to the “culture of life” movement by Bush and the Republican Congress represents the ultimate in hypocrisy. Why? Because on the very same weekend that these neocons-turned-nursemaids wrung their hands and spouted platitudes about protecting the sanctity of Schiavo’s life, the Bush administration eliminated all funding for the Federal Traumatic Brain Injuries Act!

That’s right. Our president and his sycophants in Congress don’t care about saving brain-injured patients who could actually improve with treatments... brain injured combat veterans are being turned away from federal programs, denied help from the very same government that they fought to serve and protect.
