Huh? Wasn't Obama screaming and ranting and raving about..........ah never mind.

"Remember when Obama was railing on about "the tax-break for corporate jets," during the debt-ceiling fights of 2011? He repeatedly invoked this "tax break," which was really about how some corporate jets were depreciated over five years instead of seven. The message was clear: Republicans are in bed with corporate-jet owners. His loyal legions on the Left joined the chant.
But today, Obama's export-subsidy chief promised a billion dollars in taxpayer-backed subsidies for corporate jets, according to Bloomberg News."

Where did you get subsidies out of that. Those thick rose colored glasses you wear? Providing aid to manufacturers != tax breaks.

The difference here, I think you were too busy parroting some whining about Obama, is that this is giving subsidies to US manufacturing. That's a far cry from giving breaks to companies for their corporate jets.

Well, that's another billion dollars Obama is going to have to soak the wealthy for.

Obama's export-subsidy chief promised a billion dollars in taxpayer-backed subsidies for corporate jets, according to Bloomberg News.

Ex-Im supported $90 million of corporate jet deliveries last year to customers of Textron Inc. (TXT)’s Cessna Aircraft Co, General Dynamics Corp. (GD)’s Gulfstream unit and Hawker Beechcraft Corp. Hochberg said he plans to boost the aid to $1 billion by 2014

You clearly didnt read the link, did you? Or maybe you dont understand the definitiion of subsidy
  1. help with expenses: a monetary gift or contribution to somebody or something, especially to pay expenses
yes, noexcuseforignorance, help with expenses is a subsidy
