Story Highlights
• President proposes tax deduction to help pay for health insurance
• Cut in gasoline consumption is needed, Bush says
• New Iraq strategy has "best chance of success," president says
• Bush pushes for temporary worker program

A few things I will comment on:

I don't like the idea of sending more troops to the war. The troops we have over their right now already give me the impression that things needs to be adjusted. I'm not saying they shoudl pull out, I am thinking that someone else needs to change the control and direction of what it will take to make progress. Why are we so worried about helping them create a government when the man leading our government is under constant fire. Kinda like football, I think the military needs a new GM or Head Coach.

Then, this is all speculation, as I don't have a very good background and understanding for hwo things are actually going down over there.

Cutting the dependance on gas is a good thing. Creating more dependance on e85 is a bad thing. I was watching the ews last night, if every bit of corn we grow is used for energy, it will only generate about 15% of what we woudl need in a year. And e85 still has it's downfalls with gas milage (in some cases) and other smaller effects that are no where near what oil based fuel has. I do like the idea of looking into other bio-fuels for the next generation. Priarie grass is looking to be a big one right now with the right mixtures. I'll have to look more up on this later.

As for the immagration issue and border protection, I find it to be a lost cause. I was reading on another site where a guy was found to be in possesion of stolen items and said they where bought out of a van. The man was "illegal", but was a legal home owner so it sounded like deportation wasn't an option for being invloved with said activities. I was fucking shell shocked when reading this and frankly, find the whole situation around it to be hoarse shit. How many people do I know that work hard and work legal but aren't able to buy their own home yet. Yet some fucking border jumper can? What the fuck are our troops fighting for again?
