I am not ignoring anything, but it is amazing to me how you think that your own lack of understanding of the budget is Obama's fault.
Inflation is measured in multiple ways. An inflation measure is nothing more than a weighed measure of changes in prices.
The CPI is the changes in price weighed by how important certain items are on a typical consumer's budget.
However, to get at the real GDP, the inflation measure is weighed by the relative importance of each sector on the GDP.
They predict an increase in nominal GDP of 0.07%, a GDP price index increase of 1.2%. Not surprisingly, rounded out, the result is a decrease in real GDP of 1.2%.
What is amazing to me is that throughout this discussion you have insisted that this can't be somehow your own misunderstandings of economic terminology, but instead a huge Obama lie that no one but you recognized.
