This Is Not the Senate Budget You Were Looking For
Patty Murray budget: $1 trillion in new revenue
Sen. Patty Murray’s new budget plan will raise tax revenues by nearly $1 trillion while cutting spending by the same amount over the next decade, according to people familiar with the proposal.
The Budget Committee chairwoman plans to brief fellow Democratic senators over the new proposal in a closed-door lunch Tuesday that President Barack Obama is also scheduled to attend. Committee deliberations will begin Wednesday, and the panel expects to vote on the plan Thursday before floor debate next week.
Typical Obama Democrat ~ more of OUR money out and not a damn thing gained.
Should work like a charm.
Clowns. Ruled by clowns.
Raise taxes NOW.
Cut spending, er, eventually.
Really, we will.
Trust us.
Ain’t gonna fly…
I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a tax hike today.
Murray is purely a lap dog for Obama and Reid. I don’t know that she’s ever had an original thought. Her being the Budget Committee chairman is the dream job of any airhead leftie — all the perks and privileges, none of the problems. Just do what The Leader says, and all will be well.
Which is why I am not surprised she is proposing such an insane budget. Obama just wants to get in the face of the Republicans.
And, nope, it ain’t gonna fly. I suspect that the red state Dems in the Senate are sweating over this one.
They want to turn the whole country into Detroit, it seems!
