Wow… Even Obama’s Supporters Laugh When He Says His Latest Stimulus Plan Is “Fully Paid For”

Even Obama’s supporters laughed today when he said his latest $447 billion stimulus plan is fully paid for.

Wow. Not even Obama’s supporters take him seriously.
From his speech today as posted at the White House website:

And the American Jobs Act is not going to add to the debt — it’s fully paid for. I want to repeat that. It is fully paid for. (Laughter.) It’s not going to add a dime to the deficit. Next week, I’m laying out my plan not only to pay for this jobs bill but also to bring down the deficit further. It’s a plan that lives by the same rules that families do: We’ve got to cut out things that we can’t afford to do in order to afford the things that we really need. It’s a plan that says everybody — including the wealthiest Americans and biggest corporations — have to pay their fair share. (Applause.)

And just in case the White House changes the website here is a screen grab:

Well, he is the biggest spender in world history so you really can’t blame them for snickering a little bit.
