You may enjoy the dialogue between the conservative columnist David Brooks and the more liberal columnist Gail Collins. They both played the budget cutting game and came up with different solutions. Their interchange was good humored but they did a good job of making some of the trade offs more apparent. The both pointed out that the big elephants in the room are the Bush tax cuts and Medicare. Without dealing with these issues we don't get very far.
