“Is Reneg racist?” Wrong spelling. I don’t even know if you could do what the other spelling indicates.

Isn’t “reneg” racist?

No! To dispute Obama, so we have been repeatedly told, is "racist".

Here is a little confirmnation from The Swamp
Obama 'agnostic' about deficit solutions

'All ideas are on the table,'' says president - can't 'just cut our way out.'

The Swamp

by Mark Silva

President Barack Obama says he is "completely agnostic'' about all options for repairing the federal deficit -- including new taxes on the middle class which he has pledged to avoid.

As he creates a fiscal commission by executive order to examine and recommend solutions for getting the federal government's balance sheet back in balance down the road, the president maintains that "all ideas are on the table.''

The presidential commission on the budget needs to consider all options for reducing the deficit, including tax increases and cuts in spending on entitlement programs such as Social Security and Medicare, the president said in the interview which is online at Bloomberg News today and appearing in BusinessWeek on newsstands Friday.

Can't find a link for Fox News yet.

Of interest is that they don't mention cutting pork and excesses in government spending for the fat cats, but want to cut entitlements for the masses.

Wow the press will get right on this one.

I predict some convoluted logic will be concocted where a tax increase is really a tax decrease.

Along the same line of thought...up here in Michigan, “Renege” means shift change at the Jefferson N Assembly Plant.

Oh, there were MILLIONS who believed every word. BTW, his definition of “the middle class” is everyone who has an income.
