The three things I just want to hit on that are on all in that same theme: Last week. we passed a budget led by the Republican leadership here that just continues down that same path of irresponsible priorities. $6 billion cut to Homeland Security over 5 years. $488 million in 2007 alone. Cut the Army National Guard by 17.000 troops. The National Guard. which. if we all recall. the President just talked about deploying to the border. to our MexicanAmerican border to assist States in border security. On top of that. we are also deploying them to Iraq and Afghanistan. How thin can we spread them?
