President sensitive to our concerns

After the tea parties, Obama really wanted to show the American people how serious he was about cutting government spending.
    President Barack Obama ordered his cabinet to identify and shave a collective $100 million in administrative costs from their budgets (less than the Murtha airport which has almost no customers). . . However, since President Obama’s inauguration, $270 million has been spent on television advertisements designed to influence public-policy decisions. Morning Bell, April 21, 2009
