Yes, I'm speaking of stimulus. Don't get me started on tarp. (and I'm not just a conservative against tarp, hell i'm not even a conservative. I just think much of it was wrong)

You never commented on the budget?
What do you think we've been talking about?
You even linked to the budget (big progress, by the way - few make it that far).

You have identified one piece of legislation that we can credit Obama for.
Stimulus (half the cost of the 2001 tax cuts, incidentally).
It adds $145 billion to the deficit (202.3 billion cost in the budget proposal) this year.

Only $1.2+ trillion more new spending to go to explain the deficit increase (the massive spending).

The budget screamers love trotting out that graph (post #28) - but for some reason they always fail to want to understand how those numbers came about.

Or maybe they do know, which is why they are silent - and stick to the most basic numbers which help them illustrate that Obama=bad man.

I can read, and I get what we were talking about. I also "get" Obama's budget and agree with most of it. I have a problem with the "basic" tarp funds and his use of the stimulus.

Never said he was bad, calm down.
