Is there anyone who doesnt think Obama is nothing but a clown now. An empty suit who gave 2 good speeches. Its a joke that hes accomplished nothing with his life and already written two autobiographies.
Can I say Narcissist?

Trickle down has served it's purpose and needs to change. Bottom up sounds good to me.

I meant to say, I am NOT particulary eager to pay more taxes.

I am particularly eager to pay more taxes, whoever I don't believe trickle down economics works. A balance approach does work and based your synopsis he appears to support a balance approach.
He's got my vote

i would just like to know where Obama wants to spend less money, other than Iraq? Does he want to fill the slots of all those government employees who will be retiring? Does he think the government is basically well run and using tax dollars efficiently? Does he really not want to cut projected SS spending at all, not even to push back the retirement age a bit to take into account longer lifespan? I think these are good questions that demand straight answers ....

You just sold me on Obama's economic policy! Not sure if that was your intention....

Can someone tell him to also be Rubin on deficit reduction?
Given that supply side economics has never, ever produced measurable benefits, this sounds like a breath of fresh 90's air.
