Freeze Discretionary Spending?!



Senator Evan Bayh (D-Indiana) is claiming that Obama may call for a freeze on discretionary spending in his upcoming State of the Union speech. But at this point, it doesn't matter what Bayh says. Congressional Democrats are are moving to rise the federal debt limit, which tells me that they have no intention of changing their ways. Even if President Obama did make such a call, it's unlikely that Democrats would ever honor it.
