Gosh! Look at what those big, bad Republicans have been trying to cut.

Even the most casual observer will see this as extreme and draconian. How can they live with themselves? Don't they realize the importance of the mohair subsidy?!? This is from January.  ;)

The only problem here is that if this is all it takes to amount to 2.5 trillion over 10 years, imagine what some real cuts could do.

I wish they could get enough intestinal fortitude to do some real spending cuts.  IF they can just get their foot in the door this time, it could be a start.

Foreign aid, the UN, and unConstitutional alphabet agencies would be a good start.

What is it they say about "politicians" being like baby's diapers, "They both get to smelling quickly and need to be changed often."
 
Don't know who said it, but I agree. ear

If you are going to equate politicians with diapers, you should specify which type--disposable, or reusable.  There certainly are a load of them on the left that need to be disposed of.

How about the requirement to have any other foreign language printed on government forms, the requirement for government to supply translators, money spent to restore mosques overseas.  Money sent to any country not in agreement with our foreign polices.
We can go on and on.

99% of all Lawyers give the other 1% a bad name. What I find hilarious about this is they are such an arrogant bunch, that they all think they are in the 1%.

They could start by pulling out of Libya. I saw on Fox News that the USA has broken the One Billion Dollar mark on the “non” war there. Right now it’s at about $4 million a day.
