He thinks he'll pay a political price among voters and Congressmen if he actually tries to cut spending. That's why it keeps going up. He knows this stuff is pork, and everyone in Washington would prefer to pass it and not talk about it. Brave senators like Coburn an exception.

Yeah, my statement was rather rhetorical. I just wish we could elect a president will a pair of stones who would actually work in our best interests. Right now Bush is working on behalf of the GOP congressmen, not the citizens of the USA.
