Bush: National Service not a priority

Via Paul Glastris: Example #infinity why George W. Bush has never been - and never will be - up to the task of being president. In a 9/12 world, AmeriCorps is exactly the type of government program we should be expanding, yet the Prez'dint from Crawford wants to cut their budget by 80 percent. Yes, you read that correctly. 80%!!!

In October of 2001, Sen. John McCain (Republican-AZ) explained why AmeriCorps' call for national service is vital.
