Trying to mask huge spending increases under the cloak of 'fiscal responsibility' is the height of audacity. Putting temporary war spending in supplemental budgets was done to avoid permanently baking those appropriations into the Defense Department's baseline budget. That's good budgeting, not a 'gimmick'.
