Bush budget pumps up defense, slashes funding to other programs. Democrats, such as Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Cleveland, denounced the Bush budget as being "lean and mean.'' "Is this the thanks Ohio gets for putting the president over the top: Cuts in high tech jobs and the elimination of programs to help manufacturing?'' Kucinich said. President Bush defeated John Kerry by about 118,000 votes in Ohio, and the state's 20 electoral votes gave the Republican the 270 he needed to win re-election.
