So Bush Wants to Protect the American People

Bush is willing to spend billions, nay trillions, of dollars in order to "protect" the American people from attackers, yet is unwilling to protect the American people from disease--the result of not instituting a national health care system and not funding stem cell research. When you consider all the "casualties" from the onslaught of disease, compared to "foreign" attacks, it should be a "no-brainer" that disease would be the greatest danger to the American people.
Then brutal and insidious crimes, as a result of the invasion of foreign nationals crossing over our southern border, should be another priority in protecting the American people--yet it isn't.
What hypocrisy!
Other bogus reasoning is "outsourcing" is no problem because American workers can be retrained or re-schooled to learn how to do some other job--well, as one person who has done it many times it ain't easy, costs money and time, and is distruptive. In order to get an equal or better paying job a person would have to get a lot more education and that takes time, money, and ideal circumstances. Bush's attitude about the subject shows his ignorance, indifference, and contempt for the average American worker.
