Default Obama's $100M spending cuts

I would like to take this opportunity to thank President Obama for his cost-cutting efforts.

Any supporter of Bush has no right to criticize Obama on an inflated budget.

Both parties have zero moral ground wrt budget discipline. Actually, Dems have more -- a lot more.

I have a right to criticize whomever I wish. I was critical of Bush's spending too.

But you miss the point of the video. The point is, some folks are pretending that $100M is some great sum. Compared to the whole, it's almost nothing.

Do not want him to cut $100M?

That's a great visual example of just how fiscally responsible Obama is.

For those who want to point out that Bush was irresponsible too, I agree, but Bush is no longer in office. This video is an example of Obama's budget, not Bush's budget. Bush is no longer POTUS. From now on, it's all on Obama.
