Bullshit - 2009 budget was 1.3 Trillion, submitted by Bush in September 2008.

$900 Million Porkulus spending in 2009 - OBAMA

Of which only ~200 billion fell on 2009 1.45T deficit budget, the rest was Bush.

What you said about 2009 budget being squarely on Obama is bullshit.

It was Booooooooosssssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

On the other hand, Obama's still President, but get over it and let him go! Nothing happening was his fault, get over it, move on, it was Booooooooooosssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

If FY 2009 was NOT under Scrub, then who the fuck submitted the budget request for it in Feb 2008?

You're hitting Stupid running this morning, Kaz.....

Obama and the Democrat Congress created a $900 Million Porkulus spending bill, dufus.

So basically what this stupid fk is saying is that obummer went in and did absolutely nothing. Wow betcha he's proud of that eh?

 

[Weatherman2020]

Layoffs will be easy.
All Democrats employed in the Federal government are on the short list.

You're on pace with your eight year old insults this morning, Larry.

And a big part of the answer is in the nested quotes. And both houses of congress who passed all this was ... wait for it ... Democrats ... But you're not responsible ... yeah ...

Own your actions. Leave your manhood in your other pants? It was both parties

Waiting for him to start ranting about no scandals the last 8 years next.

 

[imawhosure]

If he cuts 10% of real spending, good for him! If he cuts 5%, good to. If he cuts 1%, that is even a hurray! Why? Because the annual budget has a raise in spending of at least 3% a year, so any cut, is better than no cut at all. And even if he cuts it from some departments, anything is better than nothing, since getting the size and spending of government under control is paramount.

well there are some in here that think in 100 days if he hasn't transformed the government, he's a failure. Wow. I don't even think that's long enough to cycle anything through one full cycle of record. But at 100 days he's a loser! And that isn't panicking by the way.

I just figure they are going to gaslight us for the next 4 years, no matter how successful he is, or is not. They can not have him deliver, because if he does, they are done for a generation. The only reason they have a up today, is because many young people have never really had a President who wasn't leftist. (in many cases, including Bush) They are skeptical! But if it works, that will be erased rather quickly!

Did I just read this?

Allow me to demonstrate "gaslighting"....

Which presidential terms saw the highest growth in employment?

I'll give you #1 and #2 (Clinton, and Clinton)

lol, what has that got to do with Obama? Told you before, Bush and Obama are kinsmen, they are one era. Reagan and Clinton were the other, with another useless Bush stuffed between them.

Now we get to hear from the left that millions of orphans will be dying of starvation in the streets.

Good to see him working on what got him the job.



Making good on a promise to slash government, President-elect Trump has asked his incoming team to pursue spending and staffing cuts.

Insiders said that the spending reductions in some departments could go as high as 10 percent and staff cuts to 20 percent, numbers that would rock Washington if he follows through.

At least two so-called “landing teams” in Cabinet agencies have relayed the call for cuts as part of their marching orders to shrink the flab in government.

The cuts would target discretionary spending, not mandated programs such as Medicare or Social Security, the sources said.

The spending reductions are expected to be used to help pay for Trump’s plan to boost the Pentagon’s budget, tax cuts and some pet projects, potentially including the anti-immigration wall on the nation’s southern border.

The teams also are looking at staffing cuts over four years through attrition, a hiring freeze and reorganization.

Keep reading…

If it includes wages of Congress members, I am all for it..

well Trump and his cabinet are taking but one dollar. He's stepped up with his team.

Yet Trump is not part of Congress..

good for you!! wow you been edumacated there haven't ya?

....You have some sort of Pavlovian response to the name of last president but of course Bush, WHO SUBMITTED 2009 BUDGET is relevant to discussion about 2009 budget.

And both the House and Senate who passed it were Democrat and Obama signed the Tarp that ballooned it. Man up, Bruce. You and the Republicans did all that together. Put the finger away

 

[IcebergSlim]

We'll see I guess. Sounds like a good start, but we'll only know for sure after time has past and we can actually see less, or more, overall spending/debt and whether government grows or shrinks. I sure as hell am hoping for the latter, but again, we'll see.

Under which POTUS did we see the lowest annual rate of growth of federal spending since 1960?

You're an imbecile...here it is in Real terms (ask Kaz......he'll skul you)

Real Government Consumption Expenditures and Gross Investment

here it is in NOMINAL terms

Federal Government: Current Expenditures


Describe what you see....

 

[hadit]

Having gone through numerous corporate reorganizations in my career, I have seen many instances when "Management" dictated spending and staffing cuts in this order of magnitude. In the private sector (unlike the public sector), managers who did not get on board were quickly removed...sent off to pursue "other interests."

In most cases, the staffing and spending cuts were done, with minimal disruptions. In fact, six months later the survivors were wondering what (the fuck) all those people were doing that was so important.

In the public sector, it is very, very rare that anyone actually loses their job. Their position may be cut, but they hang around for an indefinite period of time until they secure another sinecure with another office or agency, and never actually are removed from the government's teats. The only actual reduction in force occurs through retirements, when those people are not replaced.

The last time a President went on such a campaign (Clinton), the result was that hundreds of thousands of Fed employees moved to the other side of the table, working for "Consultants" who charged the government three or four times as much to do the same meaningless jobs they were doing while on the Government payroll.

It is often said that there is nothing so permanent as a "Temporary Government Program." Coming in a close second is a government job. Good luck, Donald. The number of employees might come down but we the taxpayers will continue spending more and more every year for the services we don't want, don't need, and absolutely don't want to pay for.

Unemployment compensation on an at-will basis in our at-will employment States, would complement a fifteen dollar an hour minimum wage and solve this dilemma, on an at-will basis.

How many threads are you going to spam with that?

Uh.....that's Weatherman you're addressing.......if you are taking HIS word for it, you gotta be just as fucking stupid....

 

[Darkwind]

He [Trump] would be better off stopping the flow of money to countries that don't like us. I'd say that could be a 90% cut in a budget item itself. If these countries want to hate us, they can do it for free. Its also something that is within the power of the President to do.

If he were serious about cutting government waste, he'd do away with several cabinets, and a dozen agencies that duplicate their functions.

Yes, the one Obama signed retard. Only 200b of it fell on 2009 budget.

So the rest was the budget enacted by the Democrat Congress, huh?

Obama just gave half a billion dollars to the UN climate fund.

I'd kick the bastards out of NY and tell them to move to Uganda.
