Come on Doug, you can’t demand budget cuts and then call them phony when they happen. There’s no doubt that the cuts are small, but it’s hypocritical to suggest that this isn’t progress. It’s $100M for heaven’s sakes! When put into perspective with our deficit it’s small, but it’s still a ton of money.
