For those Conservatives who claim Romney will be better than Obama, think again. The cuts he proposed were just smoke and mirrors, The truth is his so called savings will only leave it 11% less than Obama. Seriously, is that really a big change?

Presenting his fiscal plan in USA Today last week, Mitt Romney said he wants to “eliminate every government program that is not absolutely essential.” That sounds good until you realize that Romney’s goal of cutting $500 billion from projected federal outlays in 2016 would, at best, leave the budget about 8 percent higher than it is now and only 11 percent lower than it would be without any attempt to restrain spending.

The implication: Mitt Romney thinks 89 percent of what the federal government does is “absolutely essential.” And that’s what he says when he is trying to appeal to the fiscally conservative Republicans whose votes he will need to win his party’s presidential nomination. Who knows what he really thinks, assuming he has any firm convictions at all on this crucial question.

Mitt Romney is not a  Conservative. He’s a Progressives who will help run this country into the ground. Delude yourselves if you want. But Romney’s Socialism is there for anyone to see.
