Bipartisan criticism of Bush's deficit reduction plan...

Turns out I'm not the only one that thinks Bush's deficit reduction plan sucks. Seems that the only thing that brings Democrats and Republican's together more than Jack Abramhoff is a mutual hatred of this bill. Check out the full story here:

Previously I has only reported the cuts to student loans, but it turns out the full bill puts a huge burden on social programs including a $36 Billion cut over five years for Medicare, $5 Billion in farm subsidies, $4.9 Billion in Medicaid support for poor children's health care and $16.7 from other agencies to bail out the government's pension benefit plan.
