>Real reductions in federal spending can be achieved only by getting to the
meat of the federal budget, meaning expenditures in all areas. The annual
budget soon will be $5 trillion unless Congress takes serious steps to reduce
spending for entitlements, military, and debt service. Yet how many Tea Party
candidates who campaigned on a platform of spending cuts talked about Social
Security, Medicare, foreign wars, or bond debt?<<

Unlikely. Most of the cuts I see Republicans suggesting will barely make a dent. There is no way Republicans will cut military spending-which is some of our heaviest spending. It's a nice dream though.
