HOUSE GOP CHAIRMAN OUTLINES SWEEPING SPENDING CUTS

09 Feb 2011 12:20 #1 by navycpo7
Well after reading where all the cuts are, I have to say, the Republicans need to sit down and think real hard about what they are doing. Some of the programs they are going to cut could do more harm than good. I also do not hear them talking about cutting the congressional budget. Seems the scared cow is not to be touched. But they did say nothing was protected. Guess that was a lie.

Seems if you are going to run your mouth about how you will reduce spending, etc and nothing will be protected you start at home. They have a 7.4 billion dollar budget. Their cut is only 2% for the remainder of this year. They should have the same percentage as the rest which avgerages out to about 9%. Guess since they are in office now, it doesn't matter.
