# 72 More unconstitutional spending.
Of course it's always for a "good" cause, like the children, the elderly, disaster victims - this time it's for college students as Bush is advocating increasing Pell tuition grants.
The fact that Pell was a flaming liberal should raise alarm, but Bush-bots just stare at their hero like deer caught in headlights.
If the gov't would keep their hands out of our pockets, we could afford to take care of these needs.

Bush May Raise Pell Grant Award

WASHINGTON (AP) - To ease tuition sticker-shock, President Bush wants to raise the maximum Pell Grant award by $500 over the next five years and fix a persistent shortfall in the nation's chief college aid program.
That would put the maximum grant at $4,550 by 2010, up 12 percent from the $4,050 offered today.
