Another important thing to keep in mind is that bush didn`t include the war`s costs in his budgets.It was an accounting trick that allowed him to lie to his supporters and play make pretend with other people`s money.

One of the changes President Obama instituted, was to end this accounting/fuzzy math trick.

It`s one of the things we must do to clean up our act and to restore confidence.

I`m also glad to see the cons confirming that the budget plans are Obama`s,ie. the NY Post/chimp cartoon thread.

Yeah, I'm a pretty dumb fuck.

But might I point out that's not what he said?

Nowhere did he say percentage. 

That may be what he meant to say but I don't feel responsible to mind-read posters who are too inarticulate to express their true meanings.


Nowhere did he say a 20 Millionaire should only pay $2500 either. You just threw those words in his mouth, so to speak

No. I gave an example.

And trust me, I don't want to put anything in his mouth.
