This AP headline just pisses me off:
War bill helps Iraqis, may ignore Katrina victims
NEW ORLEANS – A long way from Iraq and the war debate in Washington, Herman Moore sat outside a tent in a downtown New Orleans homeless camp, trying to make sense of a proposal that helps Iraqi war refugees but will likely exclude Hurricane Katrina victims.
First of all, am I detecting just a hint of bias in this headline and first paragraph?
Second of all, this is a war spending bill. Why should a war spending bill contain spending unrelated to the war? Domestic spending in this bill can be described in one word: Pork.
