Re: Obama's New Econ Proposals

Obama loves to unveil plans and spend money (so far, his plans would cost a trillion dollars, give or take), but he never explains how he's going to pay for it.

During his speech today, Obama said something that I've heard him say before ... that he would go through the budget "line by line" and find things to cut. Of course, he has never mentioned any program he would actually cut.

If Bob Schieffer were willing to ask this question on Wednesday -- and then not let him get away with parrying the question -- that would be very good, indeed. Don't hold your breath...
