No, not Dave's personal budget. Not even the money allocated for his Late Show program.
We're talking the fiscal 2011 U.S. budget that Obama released this week.
I looked at some of the tax provisions in the prez's financial wish list for the country. But leave it to Letterman to find some things in the 192-page document that I missed.
So in case you didn't catch Dave's reading of revelations on Monday night, here are his Top Ten Surprises In The $3.8 Trillion Federal Budget:
10. 3.5 trillion dollars given to committee fighting overspending
9. President now has to pay $25 for each bag he brings aboard Air Force One
8. Cut NASA budget so much, next mission is to New Haven, Connecticut
7. Estimate does not include convenience fee of $3.95
6. Government is raising the money by sending out a drunk Rip Torn to rob banks
5. United States pays for Ahmadinejad's tan windbreakers
4. It allocates five billion dollars for a giant wallet to hold all money
3. Don't tell him, it's a surprise, but McCain's getting a new Craftmatic adjustable bed
2. One billion dollars research grant to figure out what the hell iPad does
And the number one surprise in the $3.8 trillion federal budget –
1. The naked centerfold of senator-elect Scott Brown.
Ewwww! I certainly am glad I missed that!
