And this comes as a surprise to.......?

Absolute madness! Our Federal government is off the rails and we are led by Communist/Marxists hell-bent on destroying this country... and half of the voters wanted it this way! Madness!!

With a ratio like that, the deficit will double every year, not shrink.

When are people going to learn this "written in stone" rule:

There never is, never was, and never will be any deficit reduction!!!

It is nothing more than future subsidy for MORE DEBT!!!!

Hell, we can´t keep getting fooled like this--

This is no surprise. Look at the budgets he submits, total jokes. Which is why they get voted down 100-0. He can get away with this because Republicans haven´t offered a clear alternative that the public can understand.

Boehner has to present a clear, simple vision on spending. Obama´s looking at 4 trillion next year and higher and higher. We should offer to freeze the budget at 3.6 trillion until it´s balanced.

And why isn´t every single elected Republican on every news and media outlet drilling this point home?

What I keep wondering is...if Bush´s plan was "tax cuts for the rich´ then why don´t we just let it go back the way it was ?

Yeah, I know, it means everybody gets a tax increase....well....fine. The maybe some people will learn that THEY got a cut too.

As far as I am concerned....let´s go over the cliff.

Agreed, #7, the incessant political BS is tiring.

Those who pay taxes will pay more when the Bush tax cuts are expired.
Unfortunately, those who voted for Obama think that 75% in new spending will go directly to them....and it will, at least to those who are his peeps and some crumbs will be thrown to the groups he is manipulating. Remember the purpose of the phones was not to allow them to find jobs, but to allow Obama and crew to have a direct line to their constituents, via Twitter, FB , etc. The better to control them with. They can now directly tell them how to think and act, every minute of every day. And they complain of the horrors of slavery. Such irony.

That´s just great but not unexpected. I can only imagine what America will look like in two years.

No better proof (if one is required at all) that elections have consequences. Just wait till the next SCOTUS appointment shows up. This is going to be brutal friends.

To more money laundering

Duh!

NO, must not happen. And Republicans must not be a part of this. Obama is absolutely bringing anyone who has worked hard and made money to their knees. And he is giving that money to illegals, drug addicts, lazy do-nothings and his political friends and donors. This must be stopped.

Since he was reelected, why aren´t impeachment hearings taking place? There are so many crimes he has committed.

I was just reading about the 20 F-16´s he´s giving to Morsi, who already has 200. And more tanks. Then we know he has pulled half a billion $$ out of Medicare and today I´m hearing Rush say Medicare and Social Security will be means tested. I´d like to see most every republican in the House lose their job because they haven´t been doing it. It´s a dam good thing the dhimocraps aren´t in control or we´d really be in trouble.

That´s a lie! It will be 100 percent.

Obozo is operating our gov´t without a budget.. and intentionally overspending at a flagrantly dangerous rate.

Can´t he be impeached for this?

How about providing arms & training to our known enemy, Al Qaeda?

Has no one any spine left in congress?

ps> Obozo doesn´t get $1.6T from millionaires like he spewed in his recent campaign for taxeing the rich tour... He´s back to quoting rich as $250k & up...

Plus... Obozo defines rich by Net Worth, not salary. The tax hike may be hitting anyone with a home &/or a retirement plan.

No doubt that 75% would go for more free taxpayer money for that green BS. That way, more of our tax dollars can be flushed into bankrupcy, and the companies sold to China for pennies on the dollar.
