How was he upstaged? Hagel makes $200K, he's giving up $10k. Obama makes $400K, he's giving up $20K. That's even I would say, wouldn't you?

As a staunch republican and whos spouse works for the FED I'd like to thank the president. This guys name isnt Bush or Romney. 5% of his salary is a nice chunk of change and probably concerning for him and his family to have to part with. I understand that as a former president he will never want for anything again but if I were making what he is making $400,000.00 a year coming from where I come from 5% of that would take a little considedration

Since the original link is 2 months old, I guess this validates my statement as true that he hasnt done a dam thing with it, has he?
Are you retarded? Scroll all the way to the bottom. The full budget proposal is there in PDF format. The statement about the post being update as information becomes available means they are updating the article as the read the 256 page budget. The were updating the summary of the the budget for readers.

Oh my God. So no, your statement is factually incorrect.

That's from 2012.

The budget due Feb. 2013 is for the 2014 fiscal year. Try again, show us the budget he was required by law to submit in Feb.

Except this year. He's apparently too busy shooting hoops to do his job. He's been late with his budget for 4 out of 5 years. And every budget he submitted was voted down 100%.

I seen the proposal, now what the hell has he done with it? I guess the retard would be the one who thought simply posting a pdf = law.

Then it's a fake show that is costing him $20,000/year in cash. I don't think anyone would surrender that much cash just to be fake. Remember he makes 400k/year which is more like 250k after taxes. So it's a bit more substantial than meets the eye.

It's not even from the right year. The link was a year old. He was supposed to submit a 2014 budget by the first Monday in Feb, and two months later has still not submitted one.

no, not really, since it'll be considered a donation, and it will come with tax deductions, so its more like a $12K donation.

This year is the only year he has been late on his budget.

The budgets have been voted down every year because they have been amended by republicans.

again, this has been addressed before. the only thing the president submits is an outline of a budget, not an actual budget. it is the House and Senate that add in the details. But calling it the "President's budget" has a better ring to it i guess.
