The junior senator from Oklahoma, Tom Coburn (R), is on with Aaron Brown right now. Says we have to cut cut cut programs. Aaron asked about whether he was going to vote in favor of making the tax cuts permanent. He says, well, we cannot even talk about that right now until we figure out what we need to cut.

but we still have 3 more years of these pukes (unless we can get back one branch of government in 06) and those cuts can cause a lot more damage in that time.
