There is no escaping the fact that the Affirmative Action President, just like Bush before him, is an extremist liberal socialist. Anyone who thinks otherwise either 1) does not comprehend the definition of socialism; and/or 2) lives in a fantasy world.
or understands the facts, provided aplenty in the links peppering this very thread!

That's 81.5 billion

9 billion is in the form of a line of credit.

That's 72 billion

The cash for clunkers amounted to 3 billion not the 16 billion as quoted in your link.

That's 69 billion

Direct loans, according to the story, amounts to 32.5 billion

That's 36.5 billion

According to the story their is a 9 billion tax credit on interest of car loans. That never materialized.

So the grand total (which the story doesn't account for) is 25.5 billion of what we don't know because the story doesn't say.

The next time you try to bolster even attempt to bolster your argument, try using real figures not ones that were proposed yet never implemented.
