After spending binge, White House says it will focus on deficits
2009-11-13
Posted by:GolfBravoUSMC

#9  BTW, the Fed's spending was $311.69 billion in October and tax collection was $135.33 billion for a ratio of 2.3 dollars spent for every dollar taken in. The Obama administration is truly going to fuck the nation well before it can be voted out of office.

#8  What better way to kick off Barack ObamaÂ’s first full budget year as President than with a deficit that exceeded the White HouseÂ’s own projections as well as analystsÂ’ expectations? The federal government busted the budget worse than last October by $20 billion with a deficit of $176.36 billion for the month. That used to be considered a decent deficit target Â… for an entire year:

#6  Translation - now we raise taxes.

....and gut defense.

The man was complaining about the cost of the 50,000 extra troops the generals want, after the $770 Pork Out Act, after $1T Obamacare, and the talks already of Pork Out Act II in the wind.

#2  I can pretty much chalk up that they don't care about deficits, they still haven't passed an $800,000,000,000 health care bill yet.

#1  Suurre. That's why there is all that talk of Stimulus 2. The Federal gov already spends $2 for every $1 it takes in. Let's go for $3:1.
