Ted the honest truth is spending keeps going up, and the left, and even "moderate Democrats" in office, would have a fit if anyone started to seem to take the idea of actual spending cuts seriously.

That's not a cut, its just a smaller increase, and its still a large increase. When they get serious and start talking about actual top line cuts (even if only in real per-capita terms) let me know.
