 It's symbolic progress for Congress to learn that they can terminate programs without the sky falling. Maybe they can come back next year and start terminating programs whose costs make a difference.

 More than anything else, this one program threatens the long-term federal budget.

 Most lawmakers are coming to the conclusion that the spending spree we're seeing right now is unsustainable.

 NASA represents something important in the national psyche. Given that, there isn't a lot of hunger to cut NASA substantially, nor to cripple their ability to explore space.

 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.

 Sacrifice? ... At this time, there is none.

 States are dumping more and more expenses on federal taxpayers. States love to spend federal money because state voters don't pay for it — or at least think they don't pay for it.

 The biggest economic danger of the next 50 years is the coming crisis in entitlement spending. The problem is the entire health care system is in crisis. The entire U.S. health care system needs to be overhauled. If not, it will literally bankrupt the federal government.

 The current trend points to tax increases in the long run. The political will to make the difficult decisions on spending is lacking.

 The fiscal situation will probably have to worsen and cause some economic pain before it becomes a priority.

 The more controversial bills will most assuredly end up in a lame-duck Congress.

 The Senate is clearly dragging its feet on spending reform. Some senators have called for instead reversing the tax cuts.

 The White House always says it's [due to] defense and homeland security...but even without defense and homeland security it's record spending. The brakes are off everywhere.

 There are precious few legislative days before the election.

 There is no shortage of candidates for elimination. There is only the shortage of political will to make the difficult decisions.
