Politico continues to shill for Obama-"Obama vows further deficit-cutting"
politico ^ | 8/25/09 | MIKE ALLEN

Who comes up with these headlines. Plain propoganda. Did I miss something, when did Obama originally cut the deficit?

Now he is promising to cut it further? I know politico leans commie but wow. Cuts used to be defined by no actually percentage raise in say Dept. of Education. Then they added cost of living and anything below that increase was a "cut." Now you can max out the Fed reserve credit card and that's a cut? Is that what they are claiming, really?

For the record. The last Republican Congress budget was for fiscal 2007. That had a budget deficit of only $160 billion and the trend was a decreasing deficit.

The only deficit cutting he is doing is in national defense.

“[M]ore than half of the projected deficits over the next 10 years are directly attributable to the previous Administration’s failure to follow the pay-as-you-go principle,” the White House said.

Always looking back, you can't see what you're running into.

at this point we should be happy about this- it is easy fodder to use against him in the future...

LIARS.

As #2 stated: The last Republican Congress budget was for fiscal 2007. That had a budget deficit of only $160 billion and the trend was a decreasing deficit.
