Glenn Thrush $14 trillion budget deficit: Politico overestimates deficit by 1600 percent.: "Now, here's the thing: If the deficit really were scheduled to reach $14 trillion in fiscal year 2013, sensible people would be freaking out. But the actual projection is that the deficit will equal $845 billion. As the old saw goes, all the numbers that end in "illion" sound the same to people. But Thrush is overstating the deficit by about 1600 percent here. In other words, the actual deficit is about $13,155,000,000,000 smaller than Thrush thinks it is."

And we thought obesity was the national threat! Here go loud mouthed politicians, loud like screaming infants in the middle of a room, getting in the way and trying to take everyone down with lies and misdirection, and gross exaggerations. Matthew Yglesias concludes:

" ... What's remarkable here isn't the occurrence of an error in the article. It's not a piece about fiscal policy, and Thrush isn't a budget specialist. It's how little difference the error makes in practice. The people who are very upset about the "$14 trillion" deficit aren't going to become less upset about it when they realize it's only $845 billion, anymore than the people worried about "out of control" government spending become less worried when they learn that government spending has been flat for almost three years. (Matthew Yglesias | Posted Monday, Feb. 11, 2013. LINK) ... "

In other words "The budget deficit would fall below $1 trillion under President Obama for the first time in 2013 and would drop to $430 billion by 2015, according to CBO’s annual fiscal outlook. (Erik Wasson- 02/05/13. LINK) "

So, next time you hear blundering, bombastic, blithering non-economists, who never completed a day's work their whole life, talking about the 14 trillion dollar debt ... JUST SAY NO!!

Irked about O*B*E*S*I*T*Y Nugent shoots his mouth off

The guitarist is no stranger when it comes to talking about issues, particularly conservative ones, as an advocate for hunting and the right to bear arms. (He is on the National Rifle Association's board of directors and recorded a song called 'I Am the NRA'). Last year Nugent made news with his controversial and very critical remarks about Democratic senators Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton while holding two rifles.

On his blog, Bourdain says that it was Nugent who approached him about doing something together on television. He recounts a experience from his visit to Nugent's ranch when got a text message invite from chef Mario Batali for drinks. "I texted back," Bourdain writes, "that I regretted being unable to join him as I was currently unloading a belt-fed M-60 machine gun at Ted Nugent's place. His totally unsurprised response was 'Of course you are.'"

I will never watch Anthony Bourdain again. What does a overweight person have to do with the safety of others????. A fat tax? Better to have a A** Tax for A**holes. There are more of those. Start with the two of them. [Sharon at 8-04-2008]

I agree with Ted about this growing problem. Obese people do need to take a step back and be accountable for what they put in their mouths. They can't get mad when businesses can't accomodate them because they are too big. What really makes me sick is when I see obese kids. Chiildren should not by all means be obese... whatever happened to good old fashioned exercise? When people go out there and feast on fattening foods, all you are doing is slowly killing yourself. Ever heard of diabetes, cancer, and heart attacks? Obesity is a contributing factor for all these diseases... [cagman50 at 8-05-2008]

I agree Sharon. Nugent, I gotta admit makes me laugh at the absurdity of someone that ugly talking about the lack of visual appeal with overweight people. I'm not that into how people look normally, I like people, all kinds of 'em! And his comment about them being a drain n their families... please! I'd rather marry a fat guy with a heart then a thin guy with a mouth any day of the week, and I'll bet old Ted's family (minus his money)would too. They've gotta be tired of his rants. Your old and cranky Ted, lighten up. [Auburnember at 8-05-2008]

Ted Nugent's Latest Diatribe: Obesity
Posted Aug 4th 2008 / 3:00PM by David Chiu (Retrieved today HERE for entertainment)

"Obesity is a manifestation of a cultural deprivation," he tells globe trotting chef and TV host Anthony Bourdain, "in its most vulgar and displeasing-to-look-at form. And it's suicide as a lifestyle."

PHOTO: Hey tell Sir John that...

The Motor City Madman [Ted Nugent]recently expressed his views on the topic in an episode of 'Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations,' scheduled to air Monday night at 10 EST on the Travel Channel. In this segment, which focuses on the sights and cuisine of the American Southwest, Bourdain pays a visit to Nugent's ranch in Texas.
