Obama’s $17 Billion budget “cut” represents a net $633 Billion increase in Federal Spending from 2008.

Touted as a budget “cut”.  Sure it is.

Propose a budget of $3.55 Trillion – $650 Billion more than the $2.9 Trillion in the 2008 Budget, then claim a “cut” when you pare back the increase to “only” $633 Billion.

Nope. The blogosphere is gonna fact check your ass on this one.

Hey, at least it appears as a sliver of the total spend amount.

Feckless weasels, all of them.

    Sheeesh! The numbers are staggering!

    I’d rather study astronomy. At least numbers that large MEAN something.

    I’ll share my wisdom as your comment box says, I like to think of it as common sense. What Obama said at his daily briefing on the economy was quite mind-blowning when you think about it. It would be like my wife and I sitting down to figure out our budget and determining we could spend an extra $100, but in the process we would be saving $.50. I use to teach math—who is this great leader speaking to. The people who support him must be very, very dumb or maybe this is Kenyan Keynesianism.
