Does NASA always get the budget they request?

No, NASA has a budget limited by the Federal Government which can only spend so much money on blowing up the moon (a recent NASA mission that discovered water on the moon). Despite what the answer below says, NASA is limited to a strict budget imposed on them by the U.S. government. The effects of this can be easily seen in times of bad economical conditions.
