Re: [Pen-l] Obama , getting money to the working class pronto

All I've heard are crickets chirping re: the stunning O-budget.

Though to be fair there was this disturbing bit today from that doofus
Brooks in the NY Times:

"The White House has produced a chart showing nondefense discretionary
spending as a share of G.D.P. That’s spending for education, welfare
and all the stuff that Democrats love. Since 1985, this spending has
hovered around 3.7 percent of G.D.P. This year, it’s about 4.6
percent. The White House claims that it is going to reduce this
spending to 3.1 percent by 2019, lower than at any time in any recent
Republican administration. I was invited to hang this chart on my wall
and judge them by how well they meet these targets. (I have.)"
