To show my lack of partisanship, I'll add that the republicans in the house proposing slightly reduced spending is pure, unadulterated FAIL. If they had a set of balls between them they'd have set out a BALANCED budget, painful as that might be, or at least a budget with rational deficits leading to balance.

Instead we get Obama spending 1.3 trillion more than we have, and crowing, "hey, that's 100 billion less than I was going to spend, so I reduced spending by 100 Billion! Yeah!" Then we get the House adding 60 billion in cuts to that, but it;s 60 billion in cuts to an insane spending spree. Meaningless.

Just reprint the 2007, and change 2007 to 2011 every place it occurs. Add the cuts to THAT.
