Here Comes the Depression: Obama Proposes to Freeze Non-Security Spending for Three Years

From CNN Money.

"The officials would not reveal the details of which domestic programs would be cut, as they prepare to face major pushback from liberals in the president's own party because popular education and health spending could be on the chopping block. The details will be officially unveiled February 1, when the president publicly releases his next budget blueprint for fiscal year 2011 -- which starts October 1 -- and beyond."

I'm already hearing of "food" security loopholes--meaning food stamp programs, and "housing" security--meaning rent subsidy programs, and "social" security programs, which are self-explanatory. Dems are attaching thew word "security" to pet programs they want to keep alive.
