Looks like Ophoney disagrees with you. Office of Management and Budget Director Peter Orszag said Mr. Obama took care of that by giving charities government money to make up part of the difference. ASTRID RIECKEN/THE WASHINGTON TIMES Rep. Paul D. Ryan, Wisconsin Republican, describes “the good, the bad and the ugly” of President Obama's 2010 budget plan Thursday on Capitol Hill. "Contained in the recovery act, there's $100 million to support nonprofits and charities as we get through this period of economic difficulty," he said. see the marxixt wants the gov to be the only charity so you rely on them only. MARXISM and you voted for it.

2012 Watch: Romney distances himself from Limbaugh Like this story? Share it with Yahoo! Buzz blogs.usatoday.com Former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney, a 2008 presidential hopeful who may run in 2012, today advised conservatives at the Conservative Political Action Conference to face the new year "with resolve but without resentment." "Our country has a new president and he has our prayers and our best wishes," he said. "We want our country to succeed no matter who's in power ... The interests of the nation come first." Romney went on to criticize the "liberal Democrats" in Congress and Obama's approach to the economy and foreign policy. Still, his sentiments seemed to put him in a different camp from Rush Limbaugh. Limbaugh set off a ruckus last month when he said he wants Obama to fail. Posted by Jill Lawrence at 05:13 PM/ET, February 27, 2009 in Presidential election, 2012, Republicans \|

Poll: GOP split over possible 2012 contenders * Poll: No clear front-runner in the GOP race for the 2012 presidential race * Poll shows that 29 percent of those surveyed support Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin * Ex-governors Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney also among the top contenders * Poll says GOP women favor Palin by larger percentage than GOP men Palin - 29% (benefiting from a 10 point edge among GOP women...) Huckabee - 26% Romney - 21% Jindal - 9% "Other" - 10% By Paul Steinhauser CNN Deputy Political Director cnn.com WASHINGTON (CNN) -- As the first unofficial ballots are cast in the 2012 presidential race, a new national poll of Republicans indicates no clear front-runner for the next GOP White House nominee. It does, however, suggest a clear gender gap. Twenty-nine percent of Republicans questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey released Friday say they are most likely to support Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin for the next GOP presidential nomination. Right behind the 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee, and well within the poll's margin of error, is former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Twenty-six percent of those questioned say they are most likely backing Huckabee, the surprise winner of the 2008 Iowa GOP caucuses. Twenty-one percent of Republicans polled say they most likely would support former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, another GOP hopeful from the last campaign who may run again. Nine percent say they would probably back Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, who is considered a rising star in the GOP. On Tuesday, Jindal gave the official Republican response to President Obama's prime-time address to a joint session of Congress. This poll was conducted before that speech. "Since the poll was taken before Jindal's widely-panned speech, his low support is not a reflection on his performance on Tuesday night and is most likely due to the fact that he is not as well known as Palin, Huckabee or Romney, all of whom ran national campaigns in 2008," said CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. Ten percent of those questioned say they would most likely support someone else. While the CNN/Opinion Research Corp. poll doesn't indicate a clear front-runner, it does suggest there's a gender gap among rank-and-file Republicans. "Among GOP men, the same pattern emerges -- no clear advantage for Palin, Huckabee or Romney. But among Republican women, it's a different story. Palin has a 10-point edge among Republican women, winning 32 percent support among them to 22 percent for Huckabee and 20 percent for Romney," Holland said. "With the sampling error, that's not enough to say for sure that Palin is in the lead, but it does indicate that if the primaries were held tomorrow, Palin would have a good chance of being the favorite among GOP women." The poll's release comes as conservatives from across the country are gathered in the nation's capitol to attend the Conservative Political Action Conference, an annual gathering of those from the GOP's right wing. Those attending the meetings are voting in a straw poll for their favorite candidate for the next Republican presidential nomination. The results of the straw poll will be released Saturday. The CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey was conducted February 18-19, with 429 Republicans questioned by telephone. It has a sampling error of plus or minus 4.5 percentage points.
