This Is A Great Show: I Don't Know What It's Called But It's Got "Cannibal" In The Title

"President Barack Obama's treasury secretary said Sunday he cannot rule out higher taxes to help tame an exploding budget deficit, and his chief economic adviser would not dismiss raising them on middle-class Americans as part of a health care overhaul.

During his presidential campaign, Obama repeatedly vowed 'you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime.' But the simple reality remains that his ambitious overhaul of how Americans receive health care -- promised without increasing the federal deficit -- must be paid for.

'If we want an economy that's going to grow in the future, people have to understand we have to bring those deficits down. And it's going to be difficult, hard for us to do. And the path to that is through health care reform,' [Treasury Secretary Timothy] Geithner said. 'We're not at the point yet where we're going to make a judgment about what it's going to take.'"


-- Philip Elliott, with the kind of news that makes this political-watcher stand up and applaud - Bravo! Bravo! Brilliant Performance! - because only the Democrats can get away with bringing the curtain down like this, with reviews by The Associated Press.



Yep, that's my boy!!!
