I just received this email today and thought you guys may think it's funny. Also some of you will find it offensive and get all butt hurt. I am not affiliated with any of it and it it does not reflect my political beliefs. I do however have a sense of humor and can take a joke. Note, I also did not forward this to everyone on my email list because I don't like getting that crap either.

I'm cutting back and you may want to also....
* * * * I'm going to bite the bullet, too!!!!
President Obama ordered the cabinet to cut $100,000,000.00 ($100 million) from the $3,500,000,000,000.00 ($3.5 trillion) Federal budget.
I'm so impressed by this sacrifice that I have decided to do the samething with my personal budget. I spend about $2,000 a month ongroceries, household expenses, medicine, utilities, etc., but it's timeto get out the budget cutting axe, go through my expenses, and cut back.
I'm going to cut my spending at exactly the same ratio (1/35,000) of mytotal budget. After doing the math, it looks like instead of spending$2,000 a month, I'm going to have to cut that number by six cents. Yes,I'm going to have to get by with $1999.94, but that's what sacrifice isall about.
I'll just have to do without some things, that are, frankly, luxuries --- six cents worth.
Did this President actually think no one would do the math? Please sendthis to everyone on your list so people understand how idiotic a $100million cut is in a $3.5 trillion budget is ludicrous!!!!!!!
