It seems President Obama can’t win with MItt Romney. The New York Times’ Paul Krugman points out that the GOP frontrunner slammed Obama for refusing to cut entitlement spending and for cutting entitlement spending in the same brief statement this week:
“This week, President Obama will release a budget that won’t take any meaningful steps toward solving our entitlement crisis,” Romney said in a statement e-mailed to reporters. “The president has failed to offer a single serious idea to save Social Security and is the only president in modern history to cut Medicare benefits for seniors.”
