The diagram on this is wrong. Spending for 2009 was approved in the Fall timeframe by the 2008 President. That's the way the budget works. Congress and the President approve the Budget for the next year in the fall.

The 2013 Budget from Obama is a reduction spending. Do you think the Republican House will approve this?

"President Bush signed a $660 billion "continuing resolution" last Tuesday to keep the federal government operating through Oct. 1, 2009, and the huge budget bill also extends the congressional ban on the Army spending any money to expand the Pinon Canyon Maneuver Site for another year.

The catch-all budget bill would have been the focus of congressional debate, except the nation was caught up in whether lawmakers would approve the $700 billion financial rescue bill that ultimately passed last Friday and Bush signed into law.

US DOD "Oct. 14, 2008 – President Bush signed the fiscal 2009 defense budget into law today, authorizing a $512 billion base to support military readiness, as well as $66 billion for operations in Iraq and Afghanistan.
The law also authorizes a 3.9 percent pay raise for servicemembers, to take effect Jan. 1.
...The 2009 budget provides more than "

Even in Business one's Budget is made prior to the year where the expenditures occur. If someone does a Budget for their household you can't do that with any sort of effectiveness the same week as you receive the pay. You do it the year prior. Why? Because you're going to be balancing your spending throught the year using the Budget to execute your spending. EGADS!

That's NOT the way it works when Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are in charge

For fiscal year 2009, President Bush in February, 2008 proposed a budget with just a 3% spending increase over the prior year. Fiscal year 2009 ran from October 1, 2008 until September 30, 2009. President Obama’s term began on January 20, 2009. Recall, that in 2008 Congress was controlled by Democrat majorities.

The Democrat Congress [of 2008], confident Obama was going to win, passed only 3 of fiscal 2009’s 12 appropriations bills (Defense, Military Construction and Veterans Affairs, and Homeland Security) The Democrat Congress only passed the rest of them in 2009 when Obama was President, so 9 of the appropriations bills for 2009 were signed by Obama, resulting in a 18% budget increase

I never said Obama didn't sign anything. I did say this is Bush era spending. Why - 2008 Congress passed the bills. Under which Bush was the President. And Bush signed the bills. I'd disagree that appropriations is a good measure of how to seperate this. Instead why not use $? You'd want to steer clear of using actual $ since Bush signed the majority of the spending. It's not hard to realize the first year of the next President runs on the last Budget passed by the Last President. One must realize the fiscal year starts in Oct.

Also it's not like any President gets a blank slate. They inherit the programs, and thus, the spending of their precedessors. Obama's spending increase over the previous Bush Era Budget has been the smallest increase out of any President in recent history.

Bush's first Budget (FY 2002) was $1.8Trillion. Bush's last Budget (FY 2009) was $3.5Trillon. (rough numbers you can look up the actuals) The party of conservatives grew the Federal Budget by 83%. If your Mother heard you claim the Republicans as conservatives she'd drag you by the ear to the sink and wash your mouth out with Ivory Dish soap for your lying ways!
 
Republicans are fiscally conservative when they're running in an election. Luckily the Supreme Court determined lying as a candidate is a legitimate use of Freespeech. They'd have to or we'd be tossing most elected officals out within a year.
