Child Health Care Splits White House and States
Screw those CHIP kids. Bombs away.
Governors clashed with the White House on Monday over the future of the popular Children’s Health Insurance Program [...]
Having successfully expanded the health insurance programs in their states, some governors now suggest that the Bush administration is pulling the safety net out from under many children.
[...]
States would need substantially more to continue their programs with current eligibility rules and benefits. New estimates from the Congressional Budget Office show that the states face shortfalls of $700 million this year and a total shortage of $13.4 billion from 2008 to 2012.

Hey, no problem. They can up their income simply by cutting taxes. It's a simple Republiklutz theory of economics that says, Income = expenses + revenue shortfall X existing deficit.
I mean, it works for George Bush, right?
