$100 billion - Additional funding Bush is seeking for Iraq and Afghanistan for fiscal 2008, on top of $70 billion already requested this year

$100 billion - Amount that the new budget proposed by President Bush would save over five years by trimming Medicare and Medicaid costs

Coincidence? Food for thought.......

    They need an economist in the white house.

    I would cut funding for both.
    Also, keep in mind that the Bush "cuts" to Medicare are actually reductions in increases - not actually cutting costs from the previous years level.
