First, there are many concerned liberals who think President Obama is making a conservative-leaning deficit deal, and they are frustrated by what they believe is his conservative-leaning deficit strategy.
The examples they cite are that the White House did not try to tie a debt ceiling vote to the extension of the Bush tax cuts last December, conceded linking any increase in the ceiling to spending cuts, and whenever Republicans dug in their heels President Obama gave ground.
Some liberals are not so worried about this, they think President Obama has a cunning plan, and is giving ground as part of his grand strategy. While Republicans are using the debt ceiling to force bigger spending cuts, President Obama is getting Democrats used to the idea of bigger spending cuts than they would like.
“Cunning, yes?” They say.
They also say, with a more conservative looking deal at the end, President Obama will come out looking good to voters and this will boost his chances of re-election.
This is Obama, the conservative in sheep’s clothing.
However, inside lurks a Wolf.
On the other side of the 2012 election are the Tax increases much loved by liberals.
The strategy is that President Obama is making concessions because he knows taxes are scheduled to increase when the Bush-era tax rates expire… just after the election. Whatever deal the Republicans strike by August 2nd will have a sting in the tail.
Are you ready for this?
The New York Times accuses the Republicans of being ideologues, and, of course, President Obama is determined. Why is it that whenever conservatives dig their heels in they are being ideological, but when a liberal does it is a determined effort?
The Republicans need to stand strong on the economy, and it provides a moment for one of the 2012 candidates to come out to champion the economy. Whoever does will have a shot of winning in 2012. However, if the winning candidate has not taken the main chance then in November 2012 they will be conceding to a second term President Obama on the eve of tax hikes they have no control over.
Then we will see who the ideologue is, because President Obama can finally stop campaigning and seek to do what his ideals dictate.
Are you ready for that?

It’s hard to believe any thought went into this. Far from being cunning, Obama has proved himself to be inept, far too conciliatory, and further to the right than most republicans. If lowering taxes on business is supposed to bring jobs, the Bush tax cuts are a puzzle. Where are the jobs? A return to the Clinton-era tax rates would be much more likely to bring back the Clinton-era prosperity.
