Don't Hold Back Larry, Tell Us What You Really Think

Larry Kudlow rips into Obama's Economic Plan like a fat man into a ham sandwich.

Let me be very clear on the economics of President Obama’s address to Congress and budget. He is declaring war on investors, entrepreneurs, small businesses, large corporations, and private-equity and venture-capital funds. That is the meaning of his anti-growth tax-hike proposals, which make absolutely no sense at all — either for this recession or from the standpoint of expanding our economy’s long-run potential to grow. ...

Study after study over the past several decades has shown how countries that spend more produce less, while nations that tax less produce more. (italics mine) Obama is doing it wrong on both counts. ...

And as far as middle-class tax cuts are concerned, Obama’s cap-and-trade program will be a huge tax increase on all blue-collar workers, including unionized workers. ...

... a great many Obama supporters ... are becoming disillusioned with the performances of Obama and Treasury man Geithner. There is a growing sense of buyer’s remorse. Well then, do conservatives dare say: We told you so?


Rich Lowry isn't being shy either - "Obama is a talented, but a wily and dishonest, salesman."

Is calling someone "dishonest" the same as saying, "liar, liar, pants on fire"? I think it is.
