NEW YORK (Reuters) - Bush administration officials are planning a $1.5 billion election-year initiative to promote marriage, especially among low-income couples, the New York Times reported on Wednesday.



Administration officials have worked with conservative groups for months on the proposal, the paper said, and are weighing whether President Bush (news - web sites) should promote the plan next week in his State of the Union address.


The plan would provide at least $1.5 billion for training to help couples develop interpersonal skills that sustain "healthy marriages," the paper said.


According to the Times, the officials said they believed the measure was timely because they were facing pressure from conservatives eager to see the federal government defend traditional marriage, after the highest court in Massachusetts ruled in November that gay couples had a right to marry.

First, Bush gets involved with Iraq. Now, he's getting involved with our personal lives? Jeez, I wish he would fuck off! :fu2:
 
1.5 billion for marriage plan?

Well it leaves GLBT out and it aint that fair! GLBT has the same rights of marriage as heterosexuals and I'd rather the Feds stay out of me bedroom :P

the 1.5 billion could be better used for more school aid since Bush fucked up the public school system with the "No Child Left Behind" act!

It has nothing with school. Each city and state have their own problem. For example, my hometown is still excellent education system, just compare to Dallas ISD, I hear lately, have huge problem. It's big corner for state, not for nationwide.

Back to marriage issues, they aren't going to nosy on your marriage life. It's necessary to have one if your marriage is in trouble before fill out for divorce. But pity thing is... that news you got, Sabrina, isn't enough information to know what excatly promote plan should be.

:repost: Bush is trying to woo conservatives after his announcement of having "guest workers" in the U.S. The conservatives weren't happy with having millions of Mexicans coming to the U.S. to work or to steal our jobs. So, Bush is probably using old fashioned Pat Robertson idea: Marriage Promotion to get conservatives to vote for him amid the new immigration policy.
 
Perhaps Bush must have got that idea after spending the night with Pat Robertson in his bed :P

ugh I cant stand the Religious Right.
 
Bush is just trying to save his own ass and save face as well :roll:

:barf: George W. Bush SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:werd: I agree with you. There are better things to spend that money on than to help us improve our marriage. If he really wanted to improve our marriage, he would have allowed gay/lesbian marriages!
 
I agree with you GUYS -- smh why BUSH JR is do that?? he is just a kid to me (*raise my hand* i am former texan and not consider him as adult :nono: )
 
:werd: I agree with you guys!

Pres Bush, Jr may spend another billion dollars to teach American people to learn how to eat slow with food. He ate a petzel in wrong way to make him choke.

His marriage may rocky. He can't find his wife, laura s hole. He wants our tax payer to spend on his 101 Sex Education class this semster.

Poor Laura's anus is extremely pain because he puts a wrong one ! :mad: Who knows ??
