HUGE cuts to the record budget

Is a gallon a lot of water? If you're going to drink it, yes. If you're going to pour it in the ocean, no. This concept seems to be a hard one to grasp for those of a certain political persuasion. According to the left, Obama should be praised for his 'unprecedented' $17 billion cut to his $3.6 trillion budget. But let's put this in perspective. If Obama's budget was like driving from New York all the way to L.A. (2,791 Miles), his 'cuts' would be like driving from New York all the way to...Newark, N.J. That's right. A whopping 13 miles. Wow. Even the in-the-tank MSM isn't trying to make excuses for this craziness.
