"You Cut" versus "You Spend"
Anyone else see this stupid site by Cantor?
http://republicanwhip.house.gov/YouCut/

He's asking for ideas on what needs to be cut and letting people vote on the ideas. Somehow these votes will magically translate into laws that will end the cuts.

Well, Steny Hoyer decided to make fun of the site by mocking it with a "You Spend" site.
http://www.majorityleader.gov/youspend.cfm

It highlights the large spending by the Republicans in the last decade, such as tax cuts for the rich and big breaks for oil companies.
:applause:

Of course, the Republicans are all pissy that the Dems have one upped them.
