Pres BO has written another op-ed piece and it reads a lot like the last op-ed piece!
In fact, it reads a lot like the "hope and change" speeches that more and more people are tuning out! (The RCP average is 46%)
He wants a big plan but we are still waiting for the specifics or details.
According to USA Today, Pres BO proposed this today:
"....I've also said that I'm willing to cut historic amounts of spending in order to reduce our long-term deficits.
I'm willing to cut spending on domestic programs to the lowest level in half a century.
I'm willing to cut defense spending by hundreds of billions of dollars.
I'm willing to take on the rising costs of health care programs like Medicare and Medicaid, so we can meet our obligations to an aging population."
OK....where are the numbers? What programs is Pres BO willing to cut? What defense programs?
We are back to square one.
The GOP House has put a plan on the table: Cap, Cut & Balance.
They also passed the Ryan plan in the spring.
We are still waiting for Pres BO to put a plan on the table. We can't negotiate with someone who proposes "hope and change" and generalities!
We spoke about this, and other issues, in Friday's commentary:
