Obama to call for new tax increases in State of the Union address

NIMBY said:
We're all still waiting for you to tell us where the budget can be cut.
Since you claim certain areas are off-limits ad must actually be raised.

And when you would start your austerity budget--plunging us into a European recession.
Like the one going on right now--dragging the World's economy down.

We all know you people aren't willing to do anything Obama wants--afraid of something going right before the next election.
We are forever mired in this 2-year unbroken circle .

In all fairness, he hasn't suggested austerity of government (at least no in this thread), only austerity of federal government, and assumable many of the functions that the federal government stops doing, would be picked up by individual states, on whatever need basis that the states feel is appropriate.

Of course then all we have done is shifted the governmental service provider, and shifted which part of government we send our tax money to.

Did you ever learn the components of GDP in the United States as well as Europe. Figure it out and then maybe you will understand why European Austerity didn't work

Your support for Obama says all I need to know about you as a teacher

You're the one who played the "patriot" card.
All you lying GOPs do is play the lying historical revision card.
I had three family members in Iraq, did you serve?

So you want to play more patriot games huh Conservative.
Always a sarcastic retort with every sentence out of your con mouth.

Asking a 61-YO if he served when he grew up on Air Force bases until 8th grade with a Dad who served Air Force/Civil Service for 30 years.
And yes I do have a family member who was a three-tour Marine in Iraq, as a sniper in Fallujah.
Not a pencil-pushing JAG like Sen. Cotton of Arkansas so he could say he served.

Ask your family member if he knew my nephew who was also a Marine Sniper in Fallujah and thank him for his service. The rest of your post isn't worth the time to respond to.

The only thing he suggests is bashing the President.
And calling anybody who defends the President against his blatant irrational lies a liberal, as if that is the worst thing that could possibly be.
At this point, he isn't worth me explaining anything to since he will just lie in hisreply.

Hope you enjoyed that 'like' you got from him .

Which is why you responded to it with your well-known sarcasm.

Your thanks is meaningless, since you think you are above others on this board.

I don't trust a word you say about anything you speak of from real life.

Playing your 'patriot' card, 'values' card and all the other anti-Obama moronic nonsense we've come to expect from you people .

Right, the Obama results don't matter, got it.

Record job creation? We now have employment back to where it was when the recession began at a cost of 7.6 trillion.

He proposes a 3.9 trillion dollar budget that was rejected and takes credit for keeping a promise of cutting the deficit in half never telling the people that he wasn't talking about the 400 billion deficit at the time he was running but the over 1 trillion dollar deficit he created.

He tells the American people that his stimulus program will keep unemployment below 8% and it goes to over 10% and today is 11.2% but the official number ignores the discouraged workers, the under employed but does count the high number of part time workers employed.

He tells the American people that his stimulus plan will create shovel ready jobs and then tells the people that there is no such thing as shovel ready jobs.

When his stimulus program failed rather than focus on the economy he implemented Obamacare telling the American people that they could keep their plan and their doctors only having to admit that too was a lie

He blames Bush for the deficit in 2009 when he signed the budget so like most liberals he takes credit when none is due and never takes responsibility for anything

Yes, I can see why you are upset because lying by this President is acceptable in your world

I have never supported an increase in the DOD budget from pre-9/11 levels. It is a department of swindlers and felons from the top down.

Blatant lies? What lies would those be or is this just more liberal rhetoric. I challenge you to prove the BEA.gov, BLS.gov, Treasury numbers are lies? I challenge you to prove that my statements about the stimulus, Obamacare, the deficit are lies. Now put up or shut up

Obama has proposed a 3.9 trillion dollar budget with no wars, no recession, no stimulus all much higher than what he spent with a war, recession, and stimulus. How do you justify that? How does anyone propose a 3.9 trillion dollar budget, have it cut and then take credit for cutting the deficit in half? How does anyone claim record employment that just got us back to pre recession levels and did so at a cost of 7.6 trillion to the debt and taking the total debt to 18.2 trillion dollars. Nimby, calls those lies, but the funny thing about those lies is that they are back by official data

Yes, and Congress cut the Obama budget and that Congress had a GOP House. Obama didn't cut the deficit in half, Congress did and that deficit is still at record highs and still added to the Obama deficits

Conservative, you have just said there are no wars right now--yet we all know there are too many for me to list.
So yes, this is your first blatant irrational lie.
Let's just call tem B.I.L.s from now on--such as you've just entered the BIL Zone .
 
Yet if the budget would have gone down during a Romney Presidency the same way, you would be giving Romney the credit.
So once again, you've entered the BIL Zone .

We will never know, now will we. If Romney proposed a budget that was cut and he took credit for the reduced deficit, yes I would say the same thing I said about Obama. You have no idea what you are talking about and are trying to defend the indefensible all because Obama has a D after his name and the unions made you do it. I grew up a JFK Democrat but that party left me. the party of Pelosi, Reid, and Obama suit you

The Senate oversight committee is responsible for overseeing the defense department and that has been under Democrat control since 2007, why don't you ask them? Interesting how now it is trillions when it started out as hundreds of billions.

Maybe you weren't paying attention. Its hundreds of billions annually. $8.5 trillion was disappeared by the felons running the DOD between 1996-2012. The Senate Armed Services committee was in Republican hands for 10 of those years and they are in control of that committee now. What excuse will you use for their failure this time?

at least defense is a legitimate government function. most of the income redistribution programs are essentially unconstitutional
