Or, perhaps, this is guns and more guns. Butter will be amply provided, too -- after all, this is the Bush Administration, where Deficits Don't Matter.

The primary responsiblity of the Federal government is guns. Don't remember a mention of butter in the US constitution. I do remember something about those things not delineated in the constitution are better left to the states or the people.
Government is about priorities. Defending US citizens should come first. Call me crazy. If you want to cut something, don't cut the first priority. Cut maybe the third or fourth. That is another crazy idea that I have. They means defending the United States from WMD's by missile or being smuggled in not cut. Maybe a third and fourth priority not cut. Then start cutting.
