Interesting quote by Hugo Chavez:
I'm sure he can cut a few billion a month from Iraq.
CARACAS (Reuters) – Socialist Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez mocked George W. Bush as a "comrade" on Wednesday, saying the U.S. president was a hard-line leftist for his government's intervention of major private banks in the U.S. financial crisis.
Chavez, who calls capitalism an evil and ex-Cuban leader Fidel Castro his mentor, ridiculed Bush for his plan for the federal government to take equity in American banks despite the U.S. right-wing's criticism of Venezuelan nationalizations.
"Bush is to the left of me now," Chavez told an audience of international intellectuals debating the benefits of socialism. "Comrade Bush announced he will buy shares in private banks."
If Obama doesn't reduce spending the lack of revenue the government gets during a recession will just increase the deficit no matter what the tax rate is and 4 years from now his presidency will be challenged.
I'm sure he can cut a few billion a month from Iraq.
