I'm running out of titles for my posts on the GOP. I'm running out of words to describe them.....

President Obama spoke today on his budget plan. I thought it was a good speech....He said things a liberal could feel good about. The room was very quiet, he got some applause when he said this...

"In the last decade, the average income of the bottom 90 percent of all working Americans actually declined. Meanwhile, the top 1 percent saw their income rise by an average of more than a quarter of a million dollars each. That's who needs to pay less taxes? They want to give people like me a $200,000 tax cut that's paid for by asking 33 seniors each to pay $6,000 more in health costs. That's not right. And it's not going to happen as long as I'm President. This vision is less about reducing the deficit than it is about changing the basic social compact in America. Ronald Reagan's own budget director said, there's nothing "serious" or "courageous" about this plan. There's nothing serious about a plan that claims to reduce the deficit by spending a trillion dollars on tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires. And I don't think there's anything courageous about asking for sacrifice from those who can least afford it and don't have any clout on Capitol Hill. That's not a vision of the America I know".
This is when he spoke on Paul Ryan's plan. He was very critical of it, but how convincing was he?  When the budget battle begins will he fight for us? Will he stand on principal, will he say NO to the GOP when they demand the tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations be permanent? 

Before President Obama spoke today the GOP was out early spewing their incoherent, nonsensical talking points,
John Boehner said "You can't tax the very people we expect to re-invest in our economy and create jobs,"  "Washington has a spending problem, not a revenue problem."

Boner said now isn't the time to think about raising taxes....YET...Republicans are all for raising taxes on working men and women and small businesses. The only tax cutting proposals are for the rich and large corporations.  Do they think we are stupid?? When you give tax cuts to the wealthy you have to raise taxes on the middle class! Come on President Obama, the middle class is sick and tired of paying for the Republiscums deficit spending!

Supply Side Economics DOES NOT FRIGGIN WORK! Show us when and where it worked! Come on Republican citizens, you can't be that stupid can you??  The rich don't spend their tax savings, this economy is proof of that!

 The GOP  stands up and  vehemently says they will NOT bend when it comes to raising taxes on the rich, they swear by the tax cuts, they truly believe those tax cuts will revive our economy, will spur job growth!  Are they blind, deaf and DUMB??

81% of Americans Want to Raise Taxes on the Rich

President Obama and Democrats in Congress this is your time to rise up and fight the beast. The Obama plan or the Ryan plan...which one will reduce the deficit, which one will balance the budget, which one will keep Medicare intact, which one will be FAIR to the middle class???

 If allowed, Republicans will totally destroy the America we know today, in fact they are already doing it
Think Progress has some details for us…

Arizona
…Governor Jan Brewer is proposing to kick some 280,000 Arizonans, mostly childless adults, off the state’s Medicaid rolls. Brewer claims such a move is the only way to get the state’s fiscal house in order, as it would save $541.5 million in general funding spending…
…Instead of balancing out these draconian cuts with additional revenue increases or simply not making the cuts in the first place, Brewer instead signed $538 million in corporate tax cuts into law two weeks ago.
Florida
Last week, Gov. Rick Scott announced that he was canceling a proposed high-speed rail line between Orlando and Tampa — something that will cause Florida to forego $2 billion in federally-funded investments and cost the state at least 24,000 jobs…
…Such deep cuts in essential programs and services are necessary to offset Scott’s proposal to cut corporate and property taxes by at least $4 billion.
Michigan
…As Matt Yglesias has noted, Snyder has an innovative definition of “shared sacrifice.” His plan calls for “$1.2 billion in cuts to schools, universities, local governments and other areas while asking public employees for $180 million in concessions.” In addition, it would raise taxes on individuals by ending many deductions and taxing pensions — all in order to pay for $1.8 billion in tax cuts for businesses. Since the state’s entire budget shortfall this year is only about $1.7 billion, all or most of the cuts to services and programs important to the poor and middle class (many of whom will also see their taxes increases) could be avoided if the governor was willing to forego corporate tax breaks.
New Jersey
…After vetoing Democrats’ plans to raise taxes on New Jersey’s millionaires, Christie closed the state’s multi-billion dollar shortfall through a combination of measures, including simply refusing to make contributions to the state’s pension fund and steep cuts in education funding and assistance to municipalities.
…Christie is also being sued by Federal Transit Administration for keeping $271 million in federal funding for a tunnel under the Hudson — money he insists on keeping even after having personally canceled the project.
…The austerity measures and cuts to programs for the poor will have to be all the deeper this year as Christie is also insisting on cutting corporate tax rates.
Ohio
Gov. John Kasich demonstrated an early propensity for making future-losing choices when he made good on a campaign promise to kill Ohio’s federally-funded high-speed rail project — a move that will cost Ohio $400 million in badly-needed infrastructure investment, cost thousands of jobs, and derail millions of dollars in related private sector investments in economic development. Kasich, along with numerous other Ohio Republicans, has signed the Americans for Tax Reform pledge that rules out any tax increases to help the state make ends meet. Even though the state has an $8 billion budget shortfall, Kasich has gone even further in proposing a variety of tax cuts that would benefit corporations and the wealthy.
Texas
In facing down a $25 billion budget crisis on par with that of California, Perry categorically rejected any tax increases. Texas, as Paul Krugman said, already takes a “hard, you might say brutal, line toward its most vulnerable citizens,” as indicated by its poor educational performance and sky-high 25 percent child poverty rate.
…Perry also refuses to use any of the $9.4 billion in the state’s rainy day fund (some of which, ironically, comes from stimulus funds intended to help states stave off draconian cuts that Perry instead squirreled away) and is instead contemplating deep cuts to child services programs and education, among other things. Perry even floated a plan to drop Medicaid entirely. Perry’s proposed education cuts are so deep that they prompted an unlikely source to take to the pages of the Houston Chronicle to write in opposition to them — none other than former First Lady Laura Bush.
Wisconsin
Walker is of course now famous for his high-stakes war against Wisconsin’s workers. Walker has used a very small short-term shortfall and larger shortfall to come (which is still smaller than shortfalls the state has faced in recent years) to move forward with an unpopular plan to destroy the state’s public employee unions.
…Walker is also late in offering his budget, but it is believed that in spite of the supposed “crisis” and being “broke,” as Walker himself has said, his budget plans will include “a LOT more tax breaks” for the rich and corporations that will have to be balanced on the backs of workers or with painful cuts to state services and the state’s Medicaid programs, BadgerCare.

Read it and weep Righties, or not...these are your people, you are defending this kind of governing. Is it affecting you personally... YET?? It will...
