We need more of the Office Desk and less of the Show Window in politics. Let men in office substitute the midnight oil for the limelight. — President Calvin Coolidge

Shhh... If WtP ever realize that government IS the problem, then there won’t be any more problems to fix.

Then the political class would be out of a job, and they’d have to go back to fleecing people in the dead of night instead of during business hours wearing a smirk and posing for photo ops.

It’ll be fun to hear him say the CBO doesn’t know what it’s talking about, as I seem to recall him using it as backup for his positions on the campaign trail. But I’m sure he has a good excuse, or the MSM will cook one up for him.

I guess there will be some federal layoffs. At least in certain departments.

Egads! Maybe the CBO actually is non-partisan, but just happens to have an ideological center a little further left than most of us here at FR would prefer.

This is good. It will give cover to both our Senators and the Dhimmicrats in the ‘Gang of 14’ to stop it.

The Liberal CBO is calling the Marxists excessive.

Never thought I’d see the day.

Obama needs to understand that congressional dems are rolling him - their going to spend all available money on THEIR pet projects leaving Obama powerless and broke for the next four years. And the spending won't help the current problem - which will get worse. Dem spending on pet projects will shore up individual dems - and destroy the country. Obama’s an idiot to cheer on his own ruin.

Plus, a dead economy will help us meet The One’s greenhouse gas reduction targets earlier than promised.

Don't forget a rush back across the border. It's cheaper to be jobless and poor south of the border.
