it's in the budget, now you have to let me do it

A funny thing about Bush's terrible new budget, discussed earlier:

"The budget includes over a billion dollars in revenue from drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR), even though Congress hasn't authorized such drilling and has rejected President Bush's proposal to open ANWR to oil exploration for the last four years. ...[It also] excludes all funding for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan and the administration's $2 trillion Social Security package."
