'I Don't Want to Pinpoint' Any Spending Cuts

Hoyer = Coward
House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) said Tuesday he would not "pinpoint" any cuts that Democrats would be willing to make in federal spending, offering only broad figures on an overall reduction. At Hoyer's weekly Capitol Hill press briefing on Tuesday, CNSNews.com noted the Democrats' criticism of the GOP's proposed cuts and asked Hoyer, "Where specifically would Democrats cut spending? If these cuts that the Republicans are proposing are unacceptable, where specifically are Democrats willing to cut spending?" Hoyer said, "In point of fact, when Vice President Biden came down - in fact Democrats had been working within the appropriations framework to respond exactly to that question. "The administration's made it clear that they thought another $20 billion - which would have been, again, depending upon whether you're counting from 60 [billion], 40, or whether you're counting from zero - but if you're counting from 40, let's say for the sake of argument we put $30 billion on the table to work towards cutting with an agreement between Republicans and Democrats in the Senate and the House as to where those cuts specifically would be," he said.
