R. Gibbs Press conference:


Q Thank you. The $100 million target figure that the President talked about today with the Cabinet, can you explain why it's so small? I know he talked about -- you know, you add up a hundred million, a hundred million, a hundred million and eventually you get somewhere, but it would take an awfully long time to add up hundred millions to make a dent in the deficit. Why not target a bigger number?
MR. GIBBS: Well, I think only in Washington, D.C. does $100 million --
Q The deficit is very large. It's not a joke. The deficit is giant; $100 million really is only a dent.
MR. GIBBS: No joke --
Q You can make a joke about it, but it's not funny.
MR. GIBBS: I'm not making a joke about it; I'm being completely sincere. But only in Washington, D.C. is $100 million not a lot of money. It is where I'm from. It is where I grew up. And I think it is for hundreds of millions of Americans.
Q But the point is it's not a very big portion of the deficit.
Q You were talking about an appropriations bill a few weeks ago -- that at $8 billion -- being minuscule; a billion in earmarks. We were talking about that and you said that that --
MR. GIBBS: Well, in terms of --
Q A hundred million is a lot, but $8 billion is small?
MR. GIBBS: What I'm saying is I think it all adds up Congrats on the .0029% budget cuts

That was not a bow, comrade.

The difference between a million and a trillion is just two letters, comrade.

Bush had his moments too, of course, as did every administration prior. I guess the difference here is we can't possibly make fun of this administration.

The difference between business and government? In business, the rookie out of community college would have found a way to save $50 million by ordering office supplies in bulk BEFORE the fucking budget was made.

These lawyers and career politicians are not. fucking. qualified to be spending TRILLIONS of other peoples money!!!
