>”I would view this as the president’s vision for how we achieve deficit reduction, which makes it inherently different than the sorts of legislative negotiations we were undertaking with the speaker over the summer,” said the White House communications director, Dan Pfeiffer. <

Let me guess. He is going to raise taxes and borrow more money to pay down the deficit. Of course, the borrowing won’t be called borrowing, because the bookkeeping will be creative, until reality hits.
President Barack Obama speaks during a visit to Raleigh, North Carolina on September 11. Leading Republicans on Sunday spurned as "class warfare" an administration proposal dubbed "the Buffet rule" that would ensure millionaires are taxed at the same rate as the middle class less
Wouldn’t it be nice if he focused on the problems facing this Republic rather than running around the country trying to get reelected to a job he is totally unfit to have.
Crap just like his jobs bill.
Stuff it up your rear, Barry.
All rhetoric and smoke and mirrors accompanied with no specifics...no real bill. How’s that BUDGET coming along AnointedIdiot? Got Budget?! =.=
It's all about campaigning...his favorables on the left are going up again because he's doing class warfare. It's all about raising money for his campaign.
Putting the kabosh on his and Moochelle’s “vacations” would probably make a dent in the deficit.
Bush had the deficit down to $169 B. Barry bumped it up 10x. TEN TIMES! In two short years.
The only way to reduce the deficit is to stop spending, curtail entitlements, rid the country of the filthy entitlement disease, stop the government ponzi schemes, and (most important of all) grow the economy by getting the government OUT OF THE WAY.
His proposal will have none of this. It will be all about “social and environmental justice” which means screwing the middle class and the rich.
And watch — his bogus “savings” will be spread over 10 years. So you’ll see a big number like $2 Trillion, but that means only $200 Billion per year which is about 1/7 of this year’s deficit.
We need adults in Washington before the whole nation collapses. Unfortunately, the public has no ken for straight-talkers like Bachman, Ryan, Palin and Perry.
See? I said it was a bad idea for Boehner to engage Obama directly. Now look at the returns on that boneheaded play by Republicans.

Yet another big steaming load disguised as a bowl of chocolate Ice Cream.
Nice try.
Thankyou for playing.............
I'm talking about the un-spent Porkulus, which is now going to be a slush fund for buying his Re-Election, including spreadin' walkin'-around money in da 'hood.
BANK ON IT!
Buffet- the Judas Goat
Damn, congress can cut that much in a few hours, pass a bill saying the base lines is the same as it was in 2006: snap Over 2. trillion in spending gone.
????????????????????????????????????????
Ain’t that what the “committee” is on deadline to do?
What - he’s gonna make Michelle take the Greyhound Bus?
Never let a crisis go to waste. As usual, Obama sees this as an opportunity to transfer money from those he wants to screw to supporters and cronies.
Obama has now officially promised more “plans” than jobs created (or saved?).
