I am actually starting to feel sorry for this administration...


OBAMA CALLING ON CABINET TO CUT SPENDING

In yet another example of the bold and fearless leadership that we were promised, Obama has VOWED to cut $100 million from his budget to save some of our taxpayer dollars! I am impressed...what a noble and righteous move. Now of course, this is all keeping in mind that the total budget is 3.5 TRILLION DOLLARS. Yes, the Righteous One Barack Obama has offered to cut a whopping total of .0002% off of the budget. I tried to create a pie chart to illustrate the enormity of this effort, but no matter how big I made the chart the $100 million still only appeared as a single line.



I think what makes this so hilarious is that senior White House officials are releasing this like it is a gigantic newsbreaking story. To put in simpler terms, this would be the equivalent of taking a pay cut...from $100,000/year to $99,980/year. That breaks down to less than 50 cents a week. Obama, if you are going to make a serious effort to cut your ridiculously pork-filled and bloated budget, don't patronize the American people with a BS effort like this.
