Republicans Declare Victory Over Budget Fat

Well well well...

Apparently I missed it somehow, but those of you who are Republicans will be happy to know that you have cut ALL the fat out of the budget. Sure, you have increased spending at all levels (even when you pull out the war, and homeland security, and defense, AND Social Secuirty) by an astronomical 23% since 2001. And the budget, budget growth, budget gorwth % are all higher than they were under that free-spending Deamon Clinton.

But, smoehow, you have won. Tom DeLay - the Republican Head of the World told us so:

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay said yesterday that Republicans have done so well in cutting spending that he declared an "ongoing victory," and said there is simply no fat left to cut in the federal budget.

One wonders, a la Lewis Black, where one can get the product, that would make one sooooo delusional. Because I want a script for the those bad boys, tooooo.
