A Pinch of Salt


This idea came to me after President Obama's State of the Union address last night. In a fatuous gesture, Mr. Obama said he was freezing the budget at it's current level for the next three years. This, after first raising it to it highest level in history, and then exempting defence, medicare, social security, and a fourth item that I cannot recall. This left a net result of .58 of 1 percent that could not be raised. This man's cynacism regarding the average citizen's ability to recognize his shell games is stunning.
