I'll say what I've been saying all along...

Why did it take a hurricane to bring about any such spending cuts?

This ain't even "spending cuts", merely re-appropriation. I don't think this Congress has the courage to do any actual cuts.

Because the media has the budget in the spotlight.

Once this all dies down, the government will go back to quietly throwing our money away.
