You’re On Notice, President Obama

February 10, 2011 in Obama

In a year where pretty much everything is seeing budget cuts, even my admittedly prodigious budget for NSFW Japanese Body Pillows, it’s no surprise to hear that the federal government is looking to make cuts in the Community Development Block Grant program.
