Most curious.
I get that deficits are bad.
But why, oh why, is the first thing the GOP wants to do is kick people when they’re down when it comes to reducing spending?

Because it’s a false choice.

There are nearly $500B in unspent funds available in the stimulus bill, which has done next to nothing.

Do we want to fund pig research in Iowa, or extend unemployment?
