If we could ask the president


[PRESIDENT BUSH DURING "STATE OF THE STATES STATEMENT"]

"Together, we can restrain the spending appetite of the federal government, and balance the federal budget."

"Mr. President!"
"Aren't the war in Iraq and the war on drugs the things with the biggest spending appetite?" "Shouldn't they be restrained?"
"And wasn't the budget pretty much balanced when you got here?"

"Next question!"

[The president is reminded that no questions are permitted during the STATE OF THE STATES STATEMENT]
