I am so tired of seeing this sentence:

Polls show growing numbers of Americans want to cut money from Iraq to pay for Katrina recovery.

If you put a poll in front of any American and asked them if they wanted to cut money from (insert government program here) to pay for Katrina recovery, few would pick any government program over Katrina. Farm subsidies, highway pork projects, dredging on useless waterways — you name it, and who wouldn’t rather see the money go to help the Gulf? I find it extremely disingenuous that news organizations continue to repeat such a meaningless statistic.
