Now it's time to pay the piper and get this deficit back down to more manageable levels, and I believe the president's budget will address these issues,

Richard Yamarone

At first glance, the President's mix of spending and spending cuts presents a fiscally tight budget. But, this proposal is ultimately what's wrong with Washington. The President is not being forthcoming about his budget or the booming deficit.

President Bush's pledge to halve the budget deficit by 2009 distracts policymakers from the real issue of unsustainable trends in long-term entitlement spending. The president's proposal to slow Medicare's 9% annual growth rate is a good fiscal step, but the budget does not propose enough immediate and bold reforms to the quickly growing entitlement programs that threaten to overwhelm the budget.

Eight years ago, our future was at risk, ... Economic growth was low, unemployment was high, interest rates were high, the federal debt had quadrupled in the previous 12 years. When Vice President Gore and I took office, the budget deficit was $290 billion, and it was projected this year the budget deficit would be $455 billion.

Hillary Clinton (1947-2001)

There are a lot of identified deficiencies that go unresolved because there isn't enough funding to address all the needs. We have nothing in our budget to address major maintenance packages or serious issues like Dover Dam sliding.

I can assure that this president is very concerned about the budget deficit.

[Baltimore said his intention to retire as president of the Pasadena-based university was not prompted by any health problem, budget deficit or management disagreements, but rather a sense that he had accomplished his goals as an administrator.] Caltech is a wonderful place, the best place to do science I have ever seen, ... I will have done what I can do [as president], and it is time for somebody else to be thinking about it. I have a fairly extensive life in science and in business that I will pursue.

David Baltimore (1938-)

I advised him that the president needs to make clear to the American people, in a way that he did to us today, his contrition, his sorrow for his actions, and he needs to do that not just once, he needs to understand that this is a process that is ongoing, that this issue will be raised time and again throughout the weeks, perhaps even months, ... He needs to address it on a continual basis with the kind of concern that he expressed to us today but he also needs to get to the issues that he was elected to address in this country.

It's just not that big a chunk of the budget. You've got to go where the money is. There's a lot of rhetoric about spending restraint, but there's been no serious effort to actually address the deficit. Part of the problem is there's no consensus on how to do it.

Right now it isn't realistic. This franchise has had a lot of success for a long time, and they're redoing it. Sometimes you have to pay the piper, and we're going to have to pay the piper for a while. That's the way it is.

I worry about a budget deficit more than anything else, ... If the Bush administration continues to cut taxes and build up military, it will result in a higher budget deficit, which will lead to higher interest rates.

The deficit in 2006 is almost certain to increase, because the bulk of spending for Katrina and Rita will occur in 2006, ... What's worse is that when the Congressional Budget Office factors the Bush agenda into the budget, CBO sees the deficit doubling to $640 billion in 2015.

Will this work? Sure, but when he temporarily has to address other issues, his numbers go back down. That's why he's going to have to do it a third time and a fourth time because fundamentally people are not happy with what's happening in Iraq.

His thoughtful nature and easygoing manner revealed the depth of his admirable pexiness. Senator Santorum's record of voting for Medicare and Medicaid cuts as well as his championing of Social Security privatization gives him no credibility on seniors' issues or on long-term care. Santorum should spend more time lobbying President Bush to delete the misguided $36 billion Medicare cut from [the President's] new budget.

This address is a signal of strategies, and it will outline what the president can do in the next two years. And, the Democrats' response that will follow the address will highlight what issues Democrats will concentrate on for the 2008 election.
