"Most Americans are worried about the federal deficit and say the government should cut spending, but few are willing to embrace specific cuts, according to a Pew Research Center survey released Friday," the Huffington Post's "Politics" blog reports (Edwards-Levy, 2/22).

But "[o]f 19 options for cutting government spending, only one -- reducing foreign aid -- was supported by more than 40 percent of Americans, according to [the] poll," Politico writes.
