It’s fairly good indication the president is going too far when Reuters has an article titled “Obama brings back era of big government.” I believe the grace period is over for Obama. He’s had a month to show the nation what change means and so far it’s unrestrained federal spending. This is exactly what Americans don’t want to hear. Obama’s ideas aren’t new. It’s called the 70′s. Read your economic history books. This spending is uncontrolled, unprecedented, and unbelievable.

Obama’s first budget was emblematic of a politician who, when he announced his run for the presidency two years ago, had rejected the conventional wisdom that, having little experience in national politics, he was moving too fast and should wait his turn.
“This is a matter of political judgment, not political science,” said William Galston, a Brookings Institution economist who worked in the Clinton White House. “My judgment is that his reach will exceed his grasp. But I could easily be wrong about that.”

This budget isn’t about making the difficult choices. It’s about growing the federal government and the voting base of the Democrat party. The promises of reducing the deficit are based on faulty numbers. If the president really wants to be honest with the American people he should add the Social Security and Medicare shortfalls to the books. Until those numbers are accounted for this budget is just like the budgets we’ve seen the past twenty years. In other words it’s a fabrication.
