One Step Forward and Twelve Steps Back

Great. The House of Representatives votes to cut the deficit by six billion.

On the same day, CNS News estimates the debt jumped by another 72 billion.

Remember the Desert Rose Band?

One step forward, two twelve steps back.
Nobody gets too far like that. 
One step forward, and two twelve step back.
This kind of dance can never last...
