By David Martosko, U.s. Political Editor PUBLISHED: 12:51 EST, 4 March 2014 | UPDATED: 14:47 EST, 4 March 2014 Much of President Obama's 2015 budget proposal won't get through the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, but the White House has unveiled it anyway – a liberal Democratic wish list of policies, many of which the GOP has already nixed or refused to take up. The White House said Tuesday that the president's budget, all $3.901 trillion of it, would fully fund Obamacare, raise the national minimum wage to $10.10 per hour and index it to inflation, vastly expand infrastructure-repair plans that benefit labor unions, and significantly reduces the size of the U.S. standing army.

Wish list is likely dead-on-arrival in the GOP-controlled House of Representatives
@highlight
It would formalize a national minimum wage hike while enforcing the 'Buffett Rule' that sets minimum actual income tax levels for millionaires
@highlight
Obama has eliminated cuts to Social Security that he promised as part of last year's budget negotiation

He also wants more than $300 billion in infrastructure improvements, helping labor unions in an election year

Paul Ryan, the House Budget Committee chairman, slammed the White House budget, saying it's a 'campaign brochure,' not a practical list
And the president wants to spend an additional $56 billion for new stimulus projects and $302 billion on infrastructure repairs over four years – pleasing labor unions, a major @placeholder constituency.
@placeholder and House Republicans are expected to release their own budget proposal in April, starting the inevitable back-and-forth sniping that will likely culminate in a fiscal showdown just before the November midterm elections.
