Representative Louise Slaughter (NY-28) decided that today would be a good day to post a diary on Daily Kos. The title was A Difficult Day for All of Us, and it attempted to explain just how the House Democrats had arrived at their capitulation on George Bush's Iraq Appropriations Bill.

Go check it out for yourself, but here's a rough indication of the reception given to the Congresswoman, otherwise a netroots darling:

[via Congresswoman Louise M. Slaughter: President's Budget Is Leaving New York Behind ...]

The study, conducted by the Democratic Party's leadership, found that:

* While 167,100 manufacturing jobs have been list in New York since 2000, and while family income has dropped by an average of $709, the President%u2019s budget eliminates $238,365,000 in funding for job training and employment services in the state.

* While there are 2,705,000 people without health insurance in New York, and while health insurance costs have increased by 36 percent, the Republican budget eliminates $99 million in preventive and community health funding nationwide. It also cuts Medicare by $36 billion over the next five years.

* While home heating costs are expected to increase by 87 percent in New York%u2019s region of the country, and gas prices have increased by 89 cents in New York since January 2001, the President%u2019s budget is $2.3 billion short on low-income home energy assistance (LIHEAP) promised in the new energy law, and slashes help to working Americans to reduce their energy bills.
