3. "Extremely disappointing" -- quite an understatement
Sen. David Vitter, R-La., called a 34 percent cut on the construction budget for the Army Corps of Engineers, which designs and builds storm protection projects, "extremely disappointing."

Guess that Kool-Aid that looked so refreshing in the jug leaves an aftertaste that is "extremely disapoointing", huh?

What an outrage. How are they supposed to get back to Square One by June, let alone to Cat 5 levels?! :grr: Maybe we could spin it as "the only military program Bush** ever cut"? (We know perfectly well that COE money has been diverted to Iraq for years now...)
