Simple Math... and more

   With all the scare tactics coming from the Executive Branch of our
   government about the sequester and the media's willingness to be the 
   ministry of propaganda, I thought it might me useful to review a little 
   math.

1)One trillion is equal to one thousand billions
2)Next year's budget (though no actual budget has  
  successfully made it through the house and senate) 
  is scheduled to be 3.5 trillion dollars
3)The sequestration cuts are approximately 85 billion dollars  
4)The sequestration amount is 0.243% of the total budget
5)THE NEXT BUDGET IS LARGER THAN THE CURRENT ONE!

 THERE ARE NO CUTS IN THE BUDGET - THERE ARE NEVER ANY CUTS.

 The government bloats like a rotting corpse.
    
 The claims that sequestration is going to seriously hinder the 
 economy is so ludicrous that it borders on insanity.

 So the president goes out to make yet another campaign speech, 
 telling us that the cuts are so draconian that we may never even 
 notice them.

 No wonder Woody had to descry the president's actions and words as lunacy.

 Then the White House has the nerve to threaten a journalist who brought
 down Nixon???

 And the left, the so-called defenders of liberty, free speech, and free
 press, treat Woody like trash?

     What in the world is going on here?


Courting oblivion my friends.  Oblivion.
