It makes a big deal about getting rid of the federal deficit by 2012. But guess what: George Bush will have been out of office for three years by then--and the biggest projected reductions in the deficit in his budget all come after he leaves town.
This man gave us the deficit (remember, the federal government was running a surplus when he took office), and now he's got some bold plans for his successor to get rid of it. Now that's what I call a profile in fiscal courage.
