Obama turns down GOP proposal (Demands Boehner/Cantor/Ryan also surrender on tax increases...)

President Barack Obama spoke with House Speaker John Boehner on Friday but did not wholly accept the House Republican plan to open government, raise the debt ceiling and open budget talks, sources said.

-snip-

Senior Republican sources say Obama is amenable to changes to mandatory and discretionary spending, but needs Republicans to commit to increasing governmental revenue.

Obama and his base live off the government trough, and once that spicket is turned off, Obama will be the desparate party.

*********
You’re making entirely too much sense. The GOP will never accept your logic. The GOP is stuck on stupid.

Once again proves we elect people who can’t do basic math. If I cut spending, why do I need more money? Can it be anymore simple than that?

Johnny has five cars that are financed. His credit is maxed out. He’s on a new job and doesn’t earn as much as he did on his former job. His only option is to get rid of one of the cars.

The politicians believe the solution would be to demand his new boss pay him more than his last boss paid him. A lot more! Because Johnny wants to buy another car and he deserves it!

We need cuts in federal funding to state and local governments—not tax increases.

They’re so bad at messaging, like they have a form of Stockholm syndrome.

THEY SUCK!

The RINOS surrender to Obama on ObamaCare, Debt Ceiling and Sequester and it appears Tax Increases will be next.


Boenher agreed to increasing taxes when he agreed to increase the top tax rate and extend the Bush tax cuts...

If raising the debt ceiling doesn’t add to the debt, raising taxes doesn’t add revenue.

Hold the damn line! This country is going down the tubes with Obamacare wrecking the healthcare system and the Government borrowing $2B+ a day forever. Hopefully I’ll be gone before the collapse.

What they should have done is keep submitting new CRs with deeper cuts to lib causes every time. Just keep cutting and cutting. That’s basically what the dems do in reverse. They keep rejecting everything until their plans are funded and new taxes are levied.

In a just world, these guys would have been all struck by lightening. They are destroying the country under greater and greater burdens just to keep in power. With crushing taxes and regulations, amnesty, sticking it to our allies, coddling our enemies and exterminating liberty, it’s only a matter of time and the entire house of cards will collapse.
