During the week of Feb. 5, OMB Watch issued a multipart analysis of President George W. Bush's Fiscal Year 2008 budget request to Congress. In an overview of the president's budget, OMB Watch examined the overall impact of the request and found that it puts tax cuts ahead of domestic needs. The budget uses gimmicks and omissions to mask the true impact of the president's proposals and allows him to project an artificially balanced budget. Also available are several fact sheets on specific issues within the budget: the Program Rating Assessment Tool, budget process, the IRS budget and the tax gap, and misleading talking points about tax cuts.
