So then Boehner, Cantor and Ryan said $50 billion (which made the Tea Party really mad).

Now they say they can maybe only find $32 billion, that they will niggle and dime out of current funding for the active budget year - which means it's essentially unused leftover monies from this budget year that wouldn't get spent anyways.

We keep our fingers crossed

Unused, leftover money? WTF?

So Dems will be on board with this?
