Shocked! Shocked, I say!
In an e-mail statement sent Friday to the Enterprise-Record, Herger wrote that public broadcasting is a popular program, but Congress needs to make many discretionary program cuts reduce the budget deficit - projected to be $487 billion next year - while funding priorities such as the war on terror.
"While these spending decisions are difficult and, in some cases, may not be popular, these uniquely challenging times require that we tighten our belts as Americans and make some difficult choices " Herger wrote.
So let me sum that up for you: tax cuts for the top 1% are more important than the "war on terror" and they should also be exempt from any belt tightening. The other 99% of us can just suck it up and love America. Thanks, Wally.
