The biggest problem with this whole discussion is that Obama and his minions have yet to match orders of magnitude between the annual deficit and his proposed cuts. Freezing federal pay will save $60 billion over 10 years. When we are running trillion plus dollar deficits every year, saving $60 billion over ten doesn't mean squat. Taxing the rich, using his numbers, only saves $700 billion over ten years, when he blew more than that on his failed stimulus plan.

I agree 100% and until they put a spending freeze in place at the same time they are doing all these budget cuts we are peeing in the wind.
