I like this, in theory.

It forces the “tax cut” crowd to define exactly what will get cut. It looks like the cuts do indeed include a tax INCREASE on renters, as well as almost two BILLION dollars less for education. Fine, if that’s what Pawlenty wants, I’m sure it’ll be a winning issue for him in the presidential race in 2012. Not.

Republican’s are always harping about a government you can drown in a bathtub. Now we all get to see how that situation looks in practice. I am enjoying this myself. And enjoy your wars and tax cuts for the rich, the economy is looking just great.
