    After going through the budget line item by line item as I promised numerous times during the campaign trail, I have decided to save the taxpayer by slashing a whopping .005 % of next years proposed budget.

    .05%, not .005.

    Actually, it's .5%

    But, that's irrelevant. Why is Obama reducing spending on a budget he proposed?

    It is his budget.

    Why did he include the $17 billion in the first place?

    And as the Associated Press reported, “Those savings are far exceeded by a phone-book-sized volume detailing Obama’s generous increases for domestic programs that will accompany the call for cuts. And instead of devoting the savings to defray record deficits, the White House is funneling them back into other programs.”

    His cuts are a snippet.

    A distraction.

    He is spending more than any president ever has — and borrowing 4 times more than any president in order to spend, spend, spend.

    For people who damn near busted an aneurysm over a $300 Billion deficit, Obama's $1.2 Trillion deficit and his fake cuts have you singing his praises.

    What gives?

    Listening to Obama sell this, he's not really focusing on the dollar amount but the 'over one hundred programs cut' part. Clever marketing.

    If nothing else this lame effort shows there's still power in the budget as an issue. It's telling that Obama feels he has to pay lip service to cutting spending even as he raises it through the roof.

    Below, a reminder of when Obama thought $18 billion wasn't all that important.



    Note he's comparing the 18 billion to 300 billion in McCain's tax plan. Now 17 billion is a big deal against 3 trillion. Hope and Change indeed.

    Obama's Promise To Go Through Budget Line By Line Yields "Cuts" Of 17 Billion Dollars, Lots Of It From...Wait For It...Defense

    I was promised there would be no math on this blog but $17 Billion on a $3.1 Trillion Budget is, add this, carry that and it totals....not a whole of a lot (actually, it's 1/2 of 1%).

    Of course these aren't really cuts in the overall budget at all.

    About half of the trims would come from curbing defense programs that have been identified by Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates as expendable. They include ending production of the F-22 fighter plane and canceling a new presidential helicopter fleet.

    ...The proposed cuts, if adopted by Congress, would not actually reduce government spending. Obama's budget would increase overall spending; any savings from the program terminations and reductions would be shifted to the president's priorities.

    But the more likely outcome, budget analysts said, is that few to none of the programs targeted by Obama will be terminated. Presidents from both parties have routinely rolled out long lists of spending cuts -- and lawmakers from both parties routinely ignore them."

    In other words there's a good chance that the Kings of Pork on Capitol Hill will just stick 'em back in later. Well played Mr. President.

    Listening to Obama sell this, he's not really focusing on the dollar amount but the 'over one hundred programs cut' part. Clever marketing.

    If nothing else this lame effort shows there's still power in the budget as an issue. It's telling that Obama feels he has to pay lip service to cutting spending even as he raises it through the roof. The challenge for Republicans is that everyone loves to hear about budget cutting right up until it's there pet program that takes the hit.

    Heh...What $17 billion will buy you.

    Ouch!

    Of course, my stealing content for a bottom-tier forum is more important topic material than the discussion already being had.

    Why don't you start a "Yonivore is a plagiarist" thread and see how many people join.

    This is what you do when you have nothing to refute the content of my posts (stolen or not).

    Oh, and tell me this Chump. When you post your "original" ideas, in here, is it the result of painstaking research of the core materials and do ents of a topic or is it just repeating (in your own words, of course) that which people you trust have already stated?

    Did you discover the idea that U. S. vs. Parker or U. S. vs. Lee had anything to do with the Interrogations case? If so, bravo -- even if I disagree with your conclusion, you've devoted a vast amount of time to making a point in an unimportant venue.

    If not, you're stealing ideas. The only difference between us is you disguise your theft...I've never lied about co-opting the ideas of people, who make careers out of opining on these matters, and posting them in here.

    I found all those cases using google over the past few years. When I first found them I linked the story. I don't feel the need to do it continuously thereafter and, as you said, you don't read all my posts so there's no way you can tell when I first linked anything. All you can do is try to deny the cases existed, which of course led me to look up the actual case numbers, books written about them, etc.

    I noted the Bybee's dearth of case law research because I already knew about the cases and knew that any 1L writing a brief for the first time ever would look for relevant case law. That piqued my interest so I dug a little deeper into each case. Something Yoo and Bybee never did. Turns out pretty much everyone in the legal community agrees with what I though -- not that it's anything but an obvious conclusion.

    In the end, what can I say? I am intellectually curious and I ended up being right all by myself. You are not and you just wait for some blog to dictate your thinking.

    And then you act like it was your idea and your writing. You painstakingly edit other peoples works to pretend you did it yourself.

    That's the difference here.

    You are a liar.

    A bad liar.
