MoveOn.org People's Choice and Overall winner is very good.  It doesn't try and invoke Hitler, but is a very honest, and fair critcism.  It is called Child's Pay by Charlie Fisher.  As Bush talks about how the unemployment rate has fallen, and the economy is recovering, he is not talking about the deficit.  The numbers he has talked about for NASA are not even credible.  It is the rising, deficit that is the secret no one wants to talk about. You want to beat the Republicans, you want to see Bush's popularity numbers fall you have to talk about the spending.  To pay for the war on terrorism, we need to tighten our belts, not spend billions on retrieving rocks from the moon. 6:31:18 PM
