Ok so you're engaging in reverse RAT demogaugery.

The RATS say: If we ask for a 14% raise in spending for our pet pork project and we only get a 10% increase, that's a cut in funding.


Commie Basher says: (I'm paraphrasing his line of thought to make an example. I am NOT putting words into his mouth!)If discretionary spending has remaind flat for 3 of the last six years and the POTUS doesn't slash that spending. He's ballooning the budget!


Either way it's a bunch of spin.

Funny, when I heard Bush's state of the union speech, it was full of new spending initiatives.
