that will be voted down ALL to Zero in the Senate, yet again. Is Obama trying to abdicate all responsibility for the pressing fiscal issues our country faces? Seems like it to me.

His budget does NOTHING to fix the issue.

Politics plain and simple.

He has come up with a budget, the mean evil Republicans voted it down, he is not the problem the Republicans are and that's why you should elect me for another four years will be what is communicated to the American public.

obama is now doing the only thing he is good at, campaigning, he couldn't give a crap less about the American economy as long as it continues to falter and people continue to loose jobs.

Obama wants job creation, a balanced budget, and fiscal sanity. The right wants to attack the middle class and do everything they can to keep giving everything to their corporate cronies and the rich. Exactly what got this country into the mess it's in, in the first place.

Why doesn't he create a balanced budget then? He's done nothing to move in that direction. He's broken his promise to halve the deficit by the end of his first term. Your post is just a rhetoric spew, nothing more.

I think he wants to spend us into oblivion so we are forced to become a full blown socialist society to justify furture massive taxes and reductions in living conditions in the United States. He wants $6 a gallon gas he already said.
Our President is a jerk and a turd on a good day IMO.

2 million jobs with those businesses attached have gone away under Obama, so how is that an economic rebound?

How do you get 2 years of unemployment in such a great turn around?

The real inflation rate is 11%.
The unemployment rate is really near 16%, 20% in places like California.

Have the rich people have vanished so the liberal wet dream of over-taxing the rich further is an impossibility and the Obama refuses to go after overpaid Government unions.

I don't think you will see voting for Obama like any recovery.

Is this going to be a $5 a gallon gas type of recovery?

It's clear you are completely out of touch especially the bolded part. We don't even have to discuss whether he will get support from the GOP with his budget proposal because he won't even get support from a lot of Democrats. It's that bad.

So, are you advocating that trading oil futures should be outlawed and that they are directly tied to any particular presidency?? Just curious.

Watch for it in the elections, it won't pass and then if there is no budget at all passed they'll be doing the same thing they did for 2010. They'll be claiming there is all these cuts based on Obama's proposal.
