Gee and in all this time (thru GOP and Dem presidents alike) I thought
it was the Congress that appropriated money. If you look at the proposed
budgets vs the actual expenditures in those years, you will find that
the latter bore little resemblance to the former and was higher than the
budget requests. Not at all an unusual occurrance through the years.
