In all seriousness man I gotta say here is yet ANOTHER time when I feel your statements are incredibly detached from reality.
Bush’s spending splurges not only include extra spending on defense, but also an increase in nonmilitary spending by 21 percent over the last three years alone. In fact, Bush hasn’t vetoed a single bill that involved an expansion of government spending since he has entered the White House.
Maybe "starve" means something different where you live
I think your statement is classic of government lovers(neat tag I think). When you get a decrease in the level of funding increases you call it a cut, and when you actually get increases you claim to be starving. It hurts my head.
