Spending our way out of debt—you’d hafta be dumb not to love it!!
...USA Today noted that the “proposed cuts are about one-fiftieth the size of this year’s $787 billion economic stimulus package — all of which was added to the deficit.”
In his remarks today, the president sought to change that tenor of that coverage. He mocked the notion that smaller savings are considered “trivial” in Washington and stressed that “these savings, large and small, add up.”
And he told journalists directly that they should stress the fact that the cuts are “significant” – a surprisingly direct appeal to reporters concerning which angle they should take in their coverage.
“Surprising”? The only thing “surprising” about that is that some of the tinsel is wearing thin so soon—even to the MSM.
