So after the election, I said in here, and I meant it. That I was hopeful that now that he was back in Office Obama would start worrying about legacy and less about his base and he might actually get serious about Balancing the Budget and Reforming Entitlements.
His plan, he out lined today blows that Hope right out of the water. It confirms to me that he is still as far left as ever, and has no intentions for working with the other side.
It's really a laughable plan, with no spending cuts at all, and another 50 Billion stimulus. then there is how he wants congress to give him the power to raise the Debt limit all on his own.
Clearly that is not a serious proposal, and he knows full well the GOP could never agree to it.
So, as I feared Obama actually wants us to go over the Cliff. He wants everyone's taxes to go up, and Defense spending to be gutted. He knows he can get both with out any of the blame simply by not compromising with the GOP now.
But, I don't really blame him. The GOP did this to themselves when they set up this fucking Cliff BS. They should have been able to predict that Obama would actually want it to happen.
That way he can blame taxes going up on all people on the GOP, and start calling for "new" tax cuts for the Middle and lower brackets after the first of the year.
It's going to be a very long 4 years, It is crystal clear to me now which direction Obama intends to go, the one I always thought he would go, despite holding out hope I was wrong.
Enjoy it America, You voted for it.
this wasn't a gop idea charles, just sayin' I agree going along was not a good call, but, at that time and place the debt ceiling, the media beating the shit out of them..*shrugs*
Bob Woodward sequester book could bolster GOP attack on W.H. - POLITICO.com
Exactly, no matter what happens. The Media will beat the shit out of the GOP. The war is UN-winnable.
