Ryan: If We Win, the Poor Get Screwed and the Warmongers Get Lots of $$$$

If Mitt Romney wins in November, he and a Republican Congress will fast track legislation early next year to replace across the board defense cuts with cuts to food stamps and other programs for needy Americans.

“In January our intention is that if we don’t fix it in the lame duck is to fix it retroactively once a new session of Congress takes place,” Paul Ryan, Romney’s running mate, told a crowd in North Carolina Thursday, “We have procedural way in the Senate to advance that legislation very quickly and get it to the next President of the United States who I believe is going to be Mitt Romney, to pass that into law and retroactively prevent that sequester from taking place in January.”

The largest terror attack in American history took place with Republicans at the helm.

You know they're itching for the sequel.

If you don't, go back and listen to how often they used the word in their reelection campaigns.
