Budget Fun

[Ghoulish Delight]

I think he's going to find as much resistance to this fantasy budget from Republicans as Deomcrats. Among other things, he's talking about huge gashes in farm subsidies, something that's going to affect Republican constituancies, and it's the congressmen that have to approve this and the congressmen who are up for reelection. Another example are the proposed cuts to HUD which Republican chair Christopher Bond said "make no sense."

It's unconsionable that he's once again trying to play fast and loose by conveniently ignoring the billions spent on the war. His 5 year plan also happens to ignore the effects of his proposed permanent tax cuts.
