After President Bush gave away billions of dollars in surpluses to his fat-cat corporate buddies, he wants the working citizens of America to come up with $87 billion more. Bush lied to get us into the war, he lied about the costs of establishing peace after that ill-advised war, and he lied about the reasons for the massive tax cuts that are bankrupting the country.

Is there any reason to believe anything he said in his speech asking for additional billions?
