  1. AP analysis: Obama's budget tries to bridge political gap

    WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama's first budget of his new term is a political straddle, aimed at enticing Republicans into a new round of deficit negotiations while trying to keep faith with Democrats who favor higher taxes in service of more government spending.

  3. How Republicans raided the welfare state and left it flat broke

    I would like to add some points to former Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich's column "How the welfare state has grown" (April 7).
    I would like to add some points to former Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich's column "How the welfare state has grown" (April 7). Mr. Ehrlich fails to mention the fact that every president since Lyndon Johnson, beginning in 1964, has raided the Social Security...

  4. Obama a liberal? Hardly

    As someone who voted for Barack Obama twice and contributed to his campaigns, I am disgusted by the president’s betrayal of the poor, elderly and disenfranchised in his proposal of chained CPI for Social Security benefits. Chained CPI recalculates...

  5. A lazy budget

    WASHINGTON -- There is something profoundly timid about President Obama's proposed $3.778 trillion budget for 2014. Stripped of boasts about "investments" for the future and a responsible "balance" between deficit reduction and economic growth, the budget is a status-quo document. It lets existing trends and policies run their course, meaning that Obama would allow higher spending on the elderly to overwhelm most other government programs. This is not "liberal" or "conservative" so much as politically expedient and lazy.

  8. Now on the table: Entitlements

    <em>At a Republican presidential debate in 2011, all eight candidates on the stage said they would reject a budget deal that raised taxes even if it had $10 of spending cuts for every dollar of tax increases. At Tuesday's protest, I put the reverse question to participants: Could they accept a dollar of cuts in Medicare and Social Security benefits for every $10 of increased taxes on corporations and the wealthy? All (the leaders) I asked said they would decline.</em>
