Obama’s $100 Million Cut - Brian Riedl - The Corner on National Review Online: "Today, President Obama called for $100 million in budget cuts. Out of a $4 trillion in spending this year, this is the rounding error of a rounding error:

� It is 1/40,000 of the federal budget;

� It is 1/7,830 the size of the recent “stimulus” bill;

� It would close 1/1,845 of this year’s budget deficit;

� It is the amount the federal government spends every 13 minutes; and
