Note that military spending has doubled in the last ten years. (And I'm pretty sure this doesn't include black ops, etc.) This is the biggest "discretionary" line item by far. Medicare has gone up big because US medical costs are out of control. Two huge opportunities here to reign in the budget... IMHO.
