A good post is a good post!

BEFORE someone jumps on me for bringing the mods into this .. I am NOT saying this is a mod problem (it seems to be automatic) I just thought I'd ask!
You can't rep the same poster over and over again within a short span of time. You have to rep others first by "spreading" it around.

You didn't know that Reid has a proposed budget bill from the HOuse tabled with all the rest of the House bills he won't let the Senate debat? You need to catch up a bit, don't you?

What an absolutely disaster of a budget - $3.8 TRILLION, another $1.3 TRILLION deficit (4 years running now).

Obama’s ‘rosy’ budget scenario doubles down on class warfare « The Enterprise Blog

Quote:
Yet in his brand-new, 2013 budget, Obama calls for taxing dividends as ordinary income, essentially raising the top rate all the way to 39.6 percent. And then when you tack on the 3.8 percentage point Obamacare surtax — and an additional 1.2 percentage point itemized deduction phase-out for high-end taxpayers — the rate rises to 44.6 percent.
He's going all in with the "inequality" and class warfare garbage. Anti-taxpayer, anti-business, the true colors of this radical socialist are finally apparent for all to see.

Good plan that attacks the problem areas and those that continue to want to perpetuate the problems. Plus, it keep the Repubs squarely positioned to be against the American people.

And they are about as realistic on passing as the Presidents budget has of passing.

Both are truly partisan pieces of work.

Simpson Bowles would be a real budget plan, and neither party is really willing to cut that deeply, or to raise that many taxes.

When has one come across his desk? The GOP's budget is full of the same partisan crap, just the other way.
