When we had the tax rates of the 90s, spending was a trillion dollars less a year, in 2005 dollars.

Just saying.

Here's the tax hit scheduled for 2013. Across the board, including the middle class.

"Balance the budget in a decade?" Horseshit.

Under those tax increases in that list, ALL of them, the CBO's "baseline" still predicts deficits of over $300 billion in 2022, and rising.

In that same document, we see that the Obama budget, which plans on extending some of those tax cuts, shows a $728 billion deficit in 2022. And rising.

Incidentally, over that ten years your famous "millionaire's tax" would raise all of 47 billion.

Now what?

There's nothing left on your side. The numbers don't work for you, and the facts don't work for you.
The Democrats have finally run out of Other People's Money. The Blue Model is crashing, here and elsewhere. The only question now is how soft we can make the landing.
