HA! -- "Obama turns next to cutting deficit"

This article (especially the WH-press-release-like headline) is laughable Obama turns next to cutting deficit - USATODAY.com:
WASHINGTON — President Obama plans to outline a fresh multiyear plan to cut the federal deficit by raising taxes on the wealthy and limiting government health benefits for the poor and elderly in what the White House says will be a major speech to the nation Wednesday.

'Every corner of the federal government has to be looked at,' White House senior adviser David Plouffe told CNN's State of the Union on Sunday, two days after Obama and congressional leaders struck a down-to-the-wire deal over spending cuts for the remainder of this budget year, which ends in September.
Which reminded me of this splendid cartoon.
