Bush slashes domestic programs, boosts defense
1 hour, 58 minutes ago



President Bush proposed on Monday to boost defense spending, slow Medicare's growth and cut a host of domestic programs in a $2.77 trillion budget that sought to soothe Republican frustrations over high deficits.

With congressional elections looming in November, the fiscal 2007 blueprint came under swift attack from Democrats, who said elderly and working Americans would bear the brunt of Bush's fiscal mismanagement.

A prominent Republican, Sen. Arlen Specter (news, bio, voting record) of Pennsylvania, said Bush's proposed funding cuts for health and education were "scandalous." Specter chairs a Senate panel that oversees spending on such programs.

He was particularly critical of the White House's call for eliminating an anti-drug program and a new cord-blood stem cell bank, as well as proposed funding levels for the National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control and the "Head Start" education program for low-income preschoolers.
