The Obama Budget
By Jim Lynch on Mar 13, 2008 in 2008, Senate
From The Politico:
Sen. Wayne Allard, a Republican from Colorado, has crafted a massive budget amendment that claims to fund every policy proposed by Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) on the presidential campaign trail. Allard’s amendment _ doomed to fail by a significant margin _ includes $1.4 trillion in spending over five years by proposing Obama’s universal health care program ($65 billion a year), expanding the Army ($6.6 billion a year) and eliminating income taxes on lower income seniors ($10 billion a year).
When anyone says that we can’t afford to elect Barack Obama (or Hillary Clinton — there’s not that much difference in what they’ve proposed) take it very literally.
