Nice try...but the chart has no TARP expense nor recovery in it...now look at tax revenue due to the recession...and quit making shit up. If you add TARP to the picture the budget for 2009 swells to $4T...the tax receipts are depicted as strictly tax receipts. You know, I'm not going to argue this with you. One need only look at the "Debt & Deficits" tab of the link you provided to see where the problem is: "Obama's Budget Would Send Federal Debt to Levels Not Seen Since World War II " "Debt in Obama's Budget Exceeds CBO Baseline" "National Debt to Skyrocket" "Federal Budget Deficits Will Reach Levels Never Seen Before in the U.S. "

Latest polling data/perspectives for some newly elected winger governors Read all about it: John Kasich "Ohio voters disapprove 46 - 30 percent of the way Gov. John Kasich is handling his job, with women disapproving 48 - 25 percent and men disapproving 44 - 37 percent, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today. Voters say 53 - 36 percent that Gov. Kasich's budget is unfair to them." quinnipiac.edu Rick Synder "Snyder actually now has the worst numbers of this new trio of GOP Governors, with only 33% of voters approving of him to 50% who disapprove. And despite his overwhelming victory last fall voters now say that if they could do it over they'd pick Virg Bernero over Snyder by a 47-45 margin. Snyder's current status is definitely emblematic of the adage that the higher you climb the farther you fall." publicpolicypolling.blogspot.com Scott Walker "When we recommended the then-Milwaukee County executive to be governor, we had no reason to think that he would try to bust public-employee unions. Since his inauguration, Walker has displayed a strong ideological bent at times that distracts him from the work at hand: creating an efficient state government and formulating government policy to promote job growth. He has, in short order, become the most polarizing governor in the country." jsonline.com Tom Corbett "Most (53%) Pennsylvania adults believe the state is headed in the wrong direction and most say they are worse off (31%) or the same (57%) financially as they were last year." [Only 31% of Pennsylvanians think Corbett is doing a good job.] edisk.fandm.edu
