Dems’ freeze follies
There are more loopholes in President Obama’s proposed “spending freeze” than in an Olympic volleyball net. Gargantuan government entitlements are exempt. A half-trillion in unspent stimulus money is exempt. Foreign aid is exempt. The Democrats’ proposed $154 billion new jobs bill is exempt.
Pet federal education programs are exempt. Green jobs spending will be exempt. (Obama proposed $10 billion in new clean-energy spending earlier this month.) Electorally driven tax-credit expansions will be exempt. The health care takeover plan is not included.
