So you don't have to pretend that $1.5B/year is "no big deal" when Obama himself considers a cut of 2-3% to be a "huge deal."

1. Cutting spending on foreign aid vs. cutting spending on domestic programs has different effects.

2. Simple math. 2-3% of a $4 trillion federal budget is $80-$120 billion! That's almost a hundred times more than $1.5 billion.
