Bush's budget proposal could mean deep cuts to environmental protection, veterans benefits and other programs, critics say. See Full List of Cuts

In all, the targeted programs include 99 that the White House wants to eliminate, for a total of $8.8 billion in savings. The president wants to save an additional $6.5 billion by cutting spending on 55 programs.

More than half of the identified programs had been flagged for cuts or elimination in previous years.

1. Impeachment just keeps looking better and better.

[Merlot]

4. it's the upside to "loosing" the election

[Obviousman]

2. Wait, he wants to terminate the dept of agriculture, or just cut funding?

[jdj]

5. Health and Human Services is on that list too

What will Tommy Thompson do, is he still the head of it.

[in_cog_ni_to]

6. My guess is cuts.

;) with this administration you never know. :(

[Obviousman]

7. but those are cabinet positions

[LiberallyInclined]

8. the list was badly posted-

each cabinet department should be in bold type-
underneath each cabinet department are the items under it's perview that are facing the axe; the departments themselves are safe.

[Obviousman]

11. thanks, that makes sense

[bleedingheart]

3. Where is the outrage!!!

this is just disgusting....

[CityZen-X]

12. Why Are We Paying Taxes!?

No taxation without representation. Or has that become an equal to "the cow jumped over the moon"?

[Solly Mack]

9. HFS.....

Are the Bushbots paying attention yet?

[Horse with no Name]

10. Nominated for greatest page

Because if you aren't affected by these cuts, then you WILL know someone who is. Those will translate into dissatisfied voters and help move forward an impeachment of this digusting, vile regime.
This information has to get out to the sheeple. "Adam and Steve" may not be as important as they first believed.
Muy importante.
Thanks for the compilation. Nice work.

[BoogDoc7]

13. How many...

Of the proposed cuts are for redundant programs that are better/just as well worked by another program?

[greenbriar]

14. I wish that fucker would be impeached

all those programs for school and college would be devastating for all teens and college age kids


believe me, in this day and age, they need all the advantage they can get.

and eliminate counseling is school is a huge NO NO

[in_cog_ni_to]

15. He'll never be impeached.

They own the government. They know it and THAT is why they're doing this. Because they can. :grr:
