If by “giving” he means giving up an entitlement, then Mr. O and I could get along better than I expect (which isn’t saying so much). That seems to be the way this thing reads, although I’m obviously jumping to conclusions.

There goes the tax cuts for 95% of the people.
He would have known this if he gave his senate appointment any attention.
He lied to get elected and he knew all along it was a scam.

'Everybody's Going to Have to Give'
Does that include Congress giving back their automatic pay raises?

Naw, none of that. Comrade Zero is going to offer the Republican minority in Congress a solution they can't refuse ~ that is, another chance to read the Grace Commission report and then balance the federal budget with an increase in federal employee medical insurance co-payments.
That'll be the end of attempts to do anything of course.

Everybody? What ever happened to everyone earning
$250,000....errr...
$200,000......errr..
$150,000...ummm... $100,000 paying no more taxes?
I guess now, the saying is - if you are breathing, you will pay! NO surprise here.

"Our challenge is going to be identifying what works and putting more money into that, eliminating things that dont work, and making things that we have more efficient. Sounds like the free market to me. If only.

There goes the tax cuts for 95% of the people. Anyone who thought this clown was actually going to cut anyones taxes should have been denied the Franchise due to mental incompetence.

It’s time to be patriotic and pay more taxes. Also we can’t drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times. (/sarcasm)

Didn’t you hear, Obama appointed Joe Biden to find the middle class because he and Biden didn’t know any middle class people. Biden is going to let us know when he finds them. All the people that he and Obama know are going to have their taxes raised.
Obama lied.

The rats control both the house and senate. There will be no giving up of any entitlements.
