Please produce a single example of a specific budget cut proposal that is supported by the Tea Party movement.

O’Care? “Stim / Porkulus”? jus to name two…
Personally, I think the dep’t of Ed that educates no one, the dep’t of Transportation that transports nothing, and the dep’t of Energy, that was formed in the 70’s to “reduce our dependence on foreign oil” and has spent $$$B (if not T - don’t have the figures to hand, sorry) could ALL be drastically cut.
We could look at HEW, or HUD, or what ever it’s called lately (Human Services?) and see WTF they are actually doing.
Arguably, the whole ‘war on poverty’ has been a total loss, and should be scrapped wholesale
See also the ‘war on drugs’ and DEA funding
Keep ICE - *if* they start enforcing the law..
‘nuff to start on?

And sorry all, thanks much for a Very Lively time, but alarm rings early, and it’s late… hate to bomb and run, but I gotta GO…

Perhaps another time.
