From the article you cite:

"Assuming this White House estimate proves correct, Obama will have cut spending as a percentage of GDP by 7.5 percent in the four fiscal years that started during his term. That would put him ahead of Reagan in terms of how much he would have cut federal spending measured as percentage of GDP."
In other words, it ain't a lie.

It doesn't look like the whole speech by any stretch. It's a popular tactic to lob off most of someone's stated position and run with it as a factoid to bolster their viewpoint. Or have you located those dratted Iraqi WMDs that cost so much coin and soldiers lives which have so far eluded everyone.

You might want to identify some specific policies of Obama's that you consider to be "commie." Please identify what portions of those policies follow Marxist ideals.

Look at the fact checkers.

Didn't that narrative originate from the demonstrative flawed Rex Nutting article?

Quote:
It started with the ridiculous column by one Rex Nutting that I dismantled last night. Nutting claims that the “Obama spending binge never happened.” He says Obama has presided over the slowest growth in federal spending in modern history. Nutting achieves this counter-intuitive feat by simply omitting the first year of the Obama administration, FY 2009, when federal spending jumped $535 billion, a massive increase that has been sustained and built upon in the succeeding years. Nutting blithely attributes this FY 2009 spending to President Bush, even though 1) Obama was president for more than two-thirds of FY 2009; 2) the Democratic Congress never submitted a budget to President Bush for FY 2009, instead waiting until after Obama was inaugurated; 3) Obama signed the FY 2009 budget in March of that year; 4) Obama and the Democratic Congress spent more than $400 billion more in FY 2009 than Bush had requested in his budget proposal, which was submitted in early 2008; and 5) the stimulus bill, which ballooned FY 2009 spending, was, as we all know, enacted by the Democratic Congress and signed into law by President Obama. So for Nutting to use FY 2010 as the first year of the Obama administration for fiscal purposes was absurd.
