Looks like Orszag really didn't want to just spend more time with his family.

Many Democrat/socialists now insist it is time to tax earnings under $250K.

Mr Orszag, whose publicly stated reasons for leaving were that he was exhausted after years in high pressure jobs and also that he wanted to plan for his wedding in September, is seen as the guardian of fiscal conservatism within the White House.

Seen by whom, Stevie Wonder?

The world really is upside down if this loon is seen as conservative. He wanted to tax us small people overtly. That’s conservative?

I'm scratching my head at this --

And so, as any remaining voices of reason realize they are dealing with a group of deranged Keynesians, soon there will be nobody left in the administration who dares to oppose the destructive course upon which this country has so resolutely embarked, which ends in one of two ways: debt repudiation, or war.

What about good old inflation? To be followed by wage and price controls. That's what the socialists want, is it not? All socialist governments love freedom of the press -- of the printing press!

When I finally realized that Zero's intention is to muck up our economy, not fix it, things bacame easier to understand. Create a crisis, then propose more socialism to save 'the little guy'. And yeah, it will be all Bush's fault.

Orzag is leaving so he doesn’t get completely tarred by Obama’s lies and economic failure. The idiot chile president can’t do simple things like get oil skimmers and sand berms in place in the Gulf...Then he surely has no idea about deficits and national economies and economic success....Though with a teleprompter and reading fancy words written by someone else, he does a good job at faking competence.

“Peter feels strongly that this is a pledge that has to be broken if the President is to take a lead on America’s fiscal crisis,”

Don’t worry Pete, it already has been done and will continue to be done in greater and greater measure.

That said, this article is truly written in a Bizzaro world fashion.
