Wow. We should "put it on the front burner in years ahead".

Perhaps if he'd put it on the front burner when he prepared the budget, we wouldn't be in such a fix?

I still don't understand why this is a "tight" budget when it's $20bln over what last year's budget cost.

It's tight because if they had their way, it'd be FIFTY billion over. The governmental 'need' for our dollars is infinite.
