I noted with interest, though, during the corporate tax handout bill, that one of the deficit hawks, Susan Collins, said "fuck it, and give Bath Iron Works [and related military-industrial complexes] the money, and I'll vote yea"

The Bush budget deficits are going to become a major political issue. They haven't had much purchase, but now that Bush has become re-elected, a lot of people will start to worry about them.
Susan Collins is more like a deficit pigeon who gets to thinking she's a hawk because there haven't been any raptors in the neighborhood for a while.
