WASHINGTON — At the same time the Bush administration has been pushing for deep cuts in a popular crime-fighting program for states and cities, the White House has been fighting for approval of $603 million for the Iraqi police.

The White House earlier this year proposed slashing the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant program, which helps local law enforcement officials deal with violent crime and serious offenders, to $200 million in the next fiscal year, which begins Oct. 1.

In 2002, the year before the Iraq war, the program received $900 million.

I didn't realize that Bush gave two shits about America.

American cops are overpaid $600 million. Brilliant.

If the federal government has $900 million to give to any police forces, it has collected to much tax money. Police are a local matter and should be paid for with local taxes, not federal funds. The same goes for Iraqi police.
