What is Obama smoking these days. That is the most garbled statement I have ever read on budgeting.

"Obama believes that a critical step in restoring fiscal discipline is enforcing pay-as-you-go (PAYGO) budgeting rules which require new spending commitments or tax changes to be paid for by cuts to other programs or new revenue."

What would he cut, what would he not cut----what would he expand, what would he not expand----the Nanny Government?

"Make Government Spending More Accountable and Efficient: Obama will ensure that federal contracts over $25,000 are competitively bid"

Obama's idea of making government more accountable and efficient is to assure that the size of the government expands to monitor these small contracts beginning at $25,000.

What's the cost of this $25,000. requirement-----how many overseers will he hire to assure compliance. A whole new beauracracy of pencil pushers-----with the expansion cost being past back to the taxpayers as the government payroll grows fat.

Just another expansion of Big Government.

Obama is a typical politician----give them a little power and they want more power.
