Conservablogger Power Quote

"...But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security..."

Obama's Budget Sacrifice Put into Perspective

Your President ordered the cabinet to cut $100 million from the $3.5
trillion federal budget.

I'm so impressed by this sacrifice that I have decided to do the same
thing with my personal budget. I spend about $2000 a month on
groceries, household expenses, medicine, utilities, etc, but it's time
to get out the budget cutting axe, go through my expenses, and cut
back.

I'm going to cut my spending at exactly the same ratio, 1/35,000 of my
total budget. After doing the math, it looks like instead of spending
$2000 a month; I'm going to have to cut that number by six cents.

Yes,  I'm going to have to get by with $1999.94, but that's what sacrifice is all about. I'll just have to do without some things, that are, frankly, luxuries.

(Did the president actually think no one would do the math? Please
send this to everyone on your list so people understand what a load of bull this is ---as if they didn't already know)
