WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama called for a surge in government spending Thursday, setting up a certain clash with Republicans who insist that federal spending must be held in check. The proposal from the president reflects the White House's newfound confidence in the economy. It comes two months after the president's fellow Democrats were routed in November elections that gave Republicans control of both houses of Congress.
Presidential budgets are proposals that seldom resemble what Congress eventually passes, and Republicans are expected to make major changes to Obama's plan.
