Raising taxes to stimulate...

After his radio address, an official made a "leaked" announcement that Obama plans to half the deficit by the end of his "first" term.

The official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the president has not yet released his budget for the fiscal year 2010, which begins Oct. 1, said the deficit will be shrunk by scaling back Iraq war spending, ending the temporary tax breaks enacted by the Bush administration for those making $250,000 or more a year, and streamlining government.

So in the middle of a recession and after cramming one of the largest spending bills in American history down taxpayer's throats, Mr. Genius is going to raise taxes on the individual who already pay the most in taxes.

Historically this has always and consistently been a VERY BAD idea but Obama believes his hype and this time it'll be different. Hope and Change, you know.

What was that classic definition of madness? Make the same mistakes over and over again but always expecting a different result? Seems to apply to every democrat and liberal idea ever. At least, conservatives learn from history, rather than repeat it.

I mean this is rich, count Obama's lies in the quote below (and by lies I mean promises he makes that he will not and can not keep).

"We can't generate sustained growth without getting our deficits under control," Obama said in his weekly radio and Internet address that seemed to preview his intentions. He said his budget will be "sober in its assessments, honest in its accounting, and lays out in detail my strategy for investing in what we need, cutting what we don't, and restoring fiscal discipline."

Honestly, this is clearly an attempt to nip the nascent tax revolt going on in the bud.

After all the promises Obama has broken and after forcing the so-called stimulus bill with all its ghastliness upon us, he actually expects us to believe him that he will have a "sober" and "honest accounting".

After that zombie circus of a stimulus bill stuffed with useless pork that Obama allowed Reid and Pelosi to create and that only democrats and three assholes voted for, that after all that, he expects us to believe that he can restore "fiscal discipline"?

Yeah right.

I believe that Obama has drunk his own kool-aid. In fact, I believe Obama has installed an Obama-Kool-Aid fountain in the Oval Office if he thinks we can now believe a single word he says.

To the Tea Party my friends. To the barricades. Unless you like being taxed into oblivion by a two-faced fool. Fight. Fight. Fight.
