This is a Scam! By Michael Master
Posted on 15 April 2011.
Did you see where the CBO (Congressional Budget Office) just published its analysis of the budget deal? The CBO claims that the $38 Billion cut from the discretionary budget will only yield an additional $356 Million cut from actual spending in 2011.
The method Congress used for reducing the discretionary budget was to move $23 Billion to the mandatory spending budget from the discretionary budget. All the other cuts they claimed as part of the deal were either already in place or for programs that had money that was not spent. Congress then claimed that they reduced the discretionary budget without having to reduce actual spending.
What is $356 million of the $3.7 Trillion budget? It is the same as taking one dollar out of ten thousand dollars. It is the same as taking $100 out of a million dollars. It is nothing!
And Obamacare remains funded. Planned Parenthood and NPR remain funded. Obama will veto any attempt to defund them now that they are included in the budget. Even Democrats can vote to defund them without any worry of them actually being defunded. They can go home and lie to their constituencies that they opposed funding of Planned Parenthood, Obamacare, and NPR even though they voted to include them to be in the budget.
This is another Joe Sestak moment.
This is a scam!
Obama increased spending $700 Billion in 2 years. $356 million is only one twentieth of one percent of $700 billion.
Boehner, Cantor, and McConnell screwed us again.
These RINOs have got to go!
They all lied to us. Everyone who voted for this budget has got to go because they deceived us! Spending our money is one thing … but their lies, tricks, and deceit are not acceptable under any circumstances.

President may have to trim billions to meet $1 trillion ceiling.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has released its final price tag for health care reform, and it’s at least $115 billion more than projected. Much of that is due to authorizations for discretionary spending put in the legislation by those drafting the bill.
The Obama administration said it would cap spending on the initiative at $1 trillion over 10 years. The new numbers would break that unofficial promise.
Jennifer Hing, a spokeswoman for Republican members of the House Appropriations Committee, said the president has a responsibility to his constituents to keep that promise.
