Fait Accompli: Obama To Endorse Commission's Tax Increase Proposals

This is precisely why this "bipartisan" commission on deficit reductions was a ridiculous idea. Obama appoints a bunch of non-elected liberal Democrats who want to jack taxes and a few squishy non-elected Republicans to go along with the idea. And Obama already said he will endorse their proposals.

And nothing is "off the table" - except of course, to any type of spending cuts. The commission's report won't be out until after the November elections. Quite convenient.
