"2% of 15 is 3 billion"

Nope! Math check: 10% of $15 Billion is $1.5 Billion. 2% of $15 Billion is $300 million. Clearly Bush distributed more than that last year, per the source ($2 Billion).

You have a source that says he "distributed" 300 million? Cool - 'cause that ain't what your earlier post said.

Wrong on math, right on statement.

Those darn decimal places.

Clearly Mr. Perlstein is wrong and his numbers have no connection to the article he cited so we are left to assume he just makes these numbers up.
