Obama Seeks Ways To Avoid Spending Cuts From Bills.

Obama seeks way to trim costs from spending bills
President Barack Obama is sending a proposal to Congress on Monday that would make it quicker and easier to trim "wasteful" costs from congressional spending bills, an administration official said.

Ever time Barack Hussein Obama opens his mouth, he spews forth lies. The same is true for czars and commissars. Observe the nonsense that this anonymous henchmen or minion used to mischaracterize this bill.
The "Reduce Unnecessary Spending Act of 2010" would enable the president to submit a package of cuts or "rescissions" to Congress after lawmakers pass one of the annual spending or appropriations bills that fund federal programs every year.

Let's translate this into plain English from the liespeak that all politicians and government employees use. This only applies to the annual federal budget. This means that it doesn't apply to any "earmarks" or "pork" that gets passed the other 364 days that the legislature passes non-budgetary bills.
Under the terms of the proposal, Congress would have to look at the president's slate of suggested cuts as a package and, without making any amendments, give them an up-or-down vote within a specific period of time.

As with all Barack Hussein Obama recent legislation, this bill allows Barack Hussein Obama to write a multi-thousand page bill that mentions thousands or millions of spending cuts. While the congress and the senate may pass multi-thousand page spending bills in order to sneak in their pet "earmarks" or "pork", I do NOT believe that the congress and the senate will allow every bodies pet "earmarks" or "pork" to be removed this easily.

Another thing to keep in mind. Most "earmarks" or "pork" bills are for small amounts of money, millions at most. Do you remember that the recent Health Care Deform bill that was passed will increase federal spending by trillions. So to put this in perspective. If the government manages to save a few million while spending trillions more, is like when you lose your house and job, and try to save a few pennies while owing thousands. A meaningless gesture. Simply grandstanding.
