Barry sat on the sidelines during the last budget battle, lobbing potshots at John Boehner from the golf course. But now he's ready to take a more active role in budget negotiations. Barry's got a plan!
Of course, it appears as if his plan is more of a draft, well, really, a rough outline… OK, more of some talking points scribbled on a cocktail napkin from a campaign event…
Can you guess what his plan is?

C'mon guess!
You're right! It's raise taxes on everybody making more than $250,000 per year.
Gee, where have we heard that number before?
It's more of a guideline really, right? Just a target for his class warfare ire. A number he can tag with "you're rich!" before sticking his hand in your pocket.
