I Hear They Contend The Sun Will Rise Tomorrow

Look at this story on the budget and the huge record deficits that PrezBO is giving us courtesy of the land of Socialism.

Take note of this line.

“Republicans contend Obama's agenda would sharply increase the size of government and add to a mountain of debt.”

Let’s look at those two items.

Will Obama’s agenda sharply increase the size of government? Obama himself is proud of this, and he talks about government taking over aspects such as auto manufacturers, banks, financial institutions, etc. So this is a fact, admitted to by the administration.

Will Obama’s agenda add to a mountain of debt? Again, even the White House admits to this, as proven by the first paragraph of this story.

So, why does Reuter’s choose to phrase it as “Republicans contend” that these facts will be true, when the White House has admitted to both?
