Government to FREEZE the budget.

The administration has announced a plan to freeze the budget for 3 years.  This will not affect military or security budgets.  It is expected to save 250 billion over the next 10 years. 

Only our government will project the cost/savings of a program designed to run for 3 years over a 10 year period.  I am not saying I agree or disagree with the move.  I am just asking why the government would buy a piece of chewing gum and project its cost over a 10-year period.

Is it too much to ask for a little balance here?  Eric Holder is going after lenders that used "predatory practices" to lure people into mortgages that were not advantageous to them.  What is the difference between what those guys did and what the government does to the general public every day? 

Using accounting tricks to try to pass Demacare, lying about the stimulus, and now the budget freeze.  Just man-up and give us some straight facts.
