		<description><![CDATA[President Obama released his budget plan for fiscal year 2012 today, but it has not come without scrutiny, as it is a $3.7 trillion budget filled with tax increases and more borrowing. According to The Wall Street Journal, Obama’s budget includes cutting defense spending by $78 billion over the next five years; cuts to programs, [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=crystalclearconservative.com&amp;blog=2386963&amp;post=6113&amp;subd=crystalclearconservative&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

The major side effect from the unemployment numbers is the number of those living in poverty.

However, his remarks from a campaign stop on Friday were truthful and albeit, honest. He said, &#8220;there&#8217;s no possibility to restore 8 million jobs lost in the Great Recession.&#8221; Unfortunately, he is right.

		<description><![CDATA[Why doesn&#8217;t this surprise me (and forgive the irony)? The Democrats in control of Congress have neglected to pass a budget.
