A-Yup

Brad DeLong on the latest utterances at Bush's cameo appearance before the "best dressed" press corps ever!

Should we say that the 2004 budget deficit was $412.7 billion, and that half of that would be $206.3 billion--not $248 billion? Should we say that the fiscal year ends in September, not February? Should we say that February never has 30 days? Should we say that February never had--not even before Julius Caesar--30 days?


I love by the way in the White House link even admits with embarrassment, the President of the United States doesn't know the most elementary aspects of the calendar.
