How Will John McCain Balance the Federal Budget? 13 May 2008 FactCheck.org discusses John McCain’s plan to balance the federal budget while extending the Bush tax cuts. McCain’s big promise is that he can balance the budget while extending Bush’s tax cuts and adding a few of his own. He likes to leave the impression that this can be done painlessly, for example, by eliminating “wasteful” spending in the form of “earmarks” that lawmakers like to tuck into spending bills to finance home-state projects. We found that not only is this theory full of holes, it’s not even McCain’s actual plan.
