Well, I never thought that in an election year the incumbent President would wheedle a hurtful bill through Congress...just doesn't make sense to me...oh, wait...there are all the grateful large conglomerates that will "owe" him.
Maybe between the election race, campaign propaganda, terrible war news, beheadings, and hurricanes he figured we the public just wouldn't notice that our rights are being taken away from us.
I don't know about you but when my husband works longer than forty (40) hours the extra overtime pay surely does help. I think it's fair..he works harder, longer and gets more. Evidently, Mr. President, you don't think so.
I have tried to read the new rules, which by the way, are set to be enacted upon on August 23rd! Isn't that remarkable? I don't think Superman at the speed of light could of beat these jokers out. The rules are confusing, which is par for the course, that of course plays into the employers hands.
I really don't know how this man can look at himself in the mirror....America's middle class is in too much trouble as it is without additional rights being taken away from us.
The polls are saying that Kerry is down a bit because of the Vietnam boat vets...well, folks come into the year 2004 and we have good ol' George selling us down the river without the damm boat. I really am more interested in the here and now - not the heretofore.
I am so angry right now...I normally don't get angry - but the very audacity of his administration to push this through as a giant plum to the good ol'boys.
Besides which, the Vietnam Vets are funded by an old buddy of President Bush...someone who has donated over 4 million dollars to his campaign. However, being as truthful as he can Mr. Bush proclaims that he has no knowledge, no involvement at all with the Vietnam Vets. Maybe I'm reading too much into 4 million dollars. Anybody written you a check like that lately?
This is literally ruining our heritage. You could stand up and be proud - this was a place that if you worked hard enough, long enough, struggled enough, you rose ever so slowly but you bettered yourself and your children. Mr. President, you are taking that away from us...you born with a silver spoon - how dare you!

Bush has been lying and whittling away at our rights since he began using 9-11 to cover his tracks and justify anything he needed to justify.
we can't survive another 4 years of him..
It's so infuriating, isn't it? How is it that a government that normally moves as slow as molasses gets to stampede these bill thru before we even hear about it? He is killing the private sector as far as employment, too. My favorite sign from the first protest dealing with that issue was "Outsource Bush!" ¤Holly
We need overtime, too....it is hard not to detest that man.
