[Walts Ice Pick]

Any politician can promise to cut the budget by any number you want in ten years. The fact is that this Congress cannot bind the Congress in ten years.

These guys need to be forced to explain how much they will be cutting from this next year's budget, the only budget they control. These guys are talking about ten years from now to disguise the fact that they aren't signigicantly cutting the budget this year or next. And, this year and next are the only budgets that they can cut.
