Obama State of the Union critique stresses follow-through
The piece argues that President Obama’s January 25 2011 State of the Union must be matched by real policy actions to reduce deficits and spending. It contrasts calls for a spending freeze with aims to cut federal outlays to 2008 levels, endorses investment in science, and notes health reform as needing more than cosmetic fixes. It ends with a pledge to work with Congress to restore fiscal responsibility and job growth.
