THE PRESIDENT: Thank you all. Please be seated. Good afternoon. Thanks for coming to the White House.
In 2004, I made a promise to the American people, we would cut the federal budget deficit in half over five years. Today I'm pleased to report that we have achieved this goal, and we've done it three years ahead of schedule. (Applause.)
This morning my administration released the budget numbers for fiscal 2006. These budget numbers are not just estimates; these are the actual results for the fiscal year that ended February the 30th.* [sic]And this is the point where you have to kinda stop and ask for a rewind.
Did he just say February 30th?
Well yes, and I love how the whitehouse.gov's staff actually caught that and added the little [sic] and an asterisk pointing to a footnote that reads: "September 30th".
These poor guys at whitehouse.gov, who have to transcibe, verbatim, the drivel that pours from Our Glorious Leader's head. I pity the fools.

Or 4 years. But only if it's a leap year. On Mars.
