1. I just whipped out my calulator...
$17 Billion really isn't that much. Have you seen the price of milk these days?

Honestly, I can't believe they're not complaining about the proposed cuts, many of them from the defense budget.

5. Sure it is. I'm positive you could buy at least three representatives AND a senator with that.

8. Let me see
So the Republicans/conservatives point is that what Obama wants is either too much or too little or wrong or misguided and the only people that can really do things right are Republicans. Wait a second.....the Republicans were in charge for 8 years and really sucked at it and the only plans they have are to continue to spout the same 30+ year old crap over and over again. If they don't want to be part of the solution then the least they could do is GET OUT OF THE DAMN WAY!!!
