Bush Creates Website for Homeless

Instead of reversing massive cuts to housing and job training he has proposed, the President apparently thinks the way to help the homeless is to set up a website for them...Here's an excerpt from the Dept. of Labor press release today:
 
WASHINGTON—The Department of Labor (DOL) today launched a Web site to help America’s homeless find jobs through mainstream as well as targeted training, education and placement services and to provide a vital link to government-wide resources.  “This Web page furthers the Administration’s commitment to helping the homeless, including homeless veterans,” said U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine L. Chao.
