    Pres. Obama unveils plan for a $3.5 trillion budget that will (according to him), reduce the national deficit by $1.1 trillion over 10 years. Under Obama, the debt has increased by over $1.7 trillion per year (most in history). That's $1.1 trillion more per year than under Bush (and that's while the U.S. was in the middle of 2 wars). You do the math.

    We have raised discretionary spending over 24% since Obama has been in office. So he does not even cut back to 2008 levels. This is a norm for Obama – talk a big game and let everyone else do the big lifting. Smoke and mirrors.
