This is what Bush said yesterday:

Our enemies are innovative and resourceful, and so are we. They never stop thinking about new ways to harm our country and our people, and neither do we.

How true. This unguarded moment of honesty occurred while he was signing a bill allocating $417 billion in defense spending (i.e. no-bid contracts to Halliburton and the like). Hold on a minute...where did I put that thing? Uh… Oh yeah. Here it is. Check this out. But where was I? Oh yes. $417 Billion. We're talking fighter jets made of titanium and moon dust, infrared space torpedoes, nuclear Uzis. Expect some awesome stuff in 2005! Meanwhile, you can also expect resentment abroad to continue its "four years of uninterrupted growth". Sure, we may have some wicked new planes, but don't expect "flyover rights" anytime soon – those days are gone. And you can just forget about maintaining our current deployment levels on foreign soil – all those "friendly" countries will be asking us to leave shortly. But hey, this all about making America safer, right?
