I can only rely on the people I voted for and the people they have appointed to represent them.

I wonder how you would have reacted if a person who voted for Bush said that about Iraq in 2003.

I could go through this document and find items I can disagree with but what would be the point. You would have to digest the whole document and come up with a comprehensive alternative view.

This isnt a nitpick over a minor spending proposal. I am saying that if we underperform those GDP assumptions, the deficit will close in on a trillion dollars a years. We can afford to run deficits for long period of time, but not at those levels and not when they come from long-term spending programs.
