Obama Moving To The Center-Hardly

Look no further than the Usurper's proposed 2012 budget plan for those thinking Obama will move to the center in his political ways. During the lame duck session of the out going 111th congress, Obama "compromised" by extending all income tax rates for the next two years. The estate tax which was agreed to be set at a $10 million exemption level for a married couple and 35% thereafter was also agreed upon.

Well the head reneger in his 2012 budget proposal reneges on both of those issues and adds on top of that about 13 new tax increases.

Obama trotted out his spending plan yesterday, and had the audacity to claim over ten years he will trim $1.1 trillion from the deficit. How wonderful. How fantastic. In other words he considers going $1.6 trillion a year further into debt instead of $1.7 trillion a year in new debt is progress.

Picture Obama as the captain of the sunken Titanic, sitting around beneath the Atlantic with his crew mulling their fate, I could just imagine him saying "Boys, were 12,000 feet under water below the surface, but the good news is I have a plan to get us topside. I'm going to use hot air to raise the ship 100 feet every year, for the next ten years." "The bad news is because of the bad engineering of 1st Officer Bush, first we're going to slide 1700 feet deeper each of those ten years. But don't worry over the details, because I'm promising to cut that slide in half somehow before I'm timed out by the rapture, and condemned to Hell."

After the House finishes barfing on his budget, and they snip his tax increases, that so called $100 Billion a year in less negative spending will be history and without taxing the rich and stunting any hopes of economic recovery led by small business, the new number if left to it's own devices, will far exceed Obama's predicted $1.6 trillion of added debt in 2012.

Barring those minor details though, aren't you glad the world's smartest man is in the White House? Forget the usurper stuff momentarily, just consider if you will, the brilliance. Does it not inspire supreme confidence in his abilities? How could you not be awed?

And here's another question since I brought up the reneging thing. Should the republicans renege on everything they gave in on during December's "compromise"? Let's start with START, DADT, and the billions in entitlement giveaways.
