Marko KOS Moulitsas: If Obama gives up Social Sec the rethugs will turn on him in the 2014 elections

[bigdarryl]

Saying Obama CUT YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY!! because they have no shame. Markos is saying that it is a FACT that Obama has proposed cuts in Social Security as a compromise.He was on Mark Thompson show. DAMN!!!! Markos is always spot on he said the over the cliff deal is more favorable than what Obama is willing to give up because it doesn't touch Social Security

[enough]

1. In my district they have been saying this in their mailers and

campaign materials since a week after he was inaugurated. I have no doubt Kos is correct about this. But they will do it no matter what.

2. SOS? Secretary of State?

3. It doesn't take a genius to figure this out

They're probably already planning the ads as I type this...

4. I have been screaming this ...

First, anything that gets passed will be on the backs of the democrats in BOTH the House and Senate it will be mostly democrats who vote for it.

And, you are ABSOLUTELY correct, in having the dems vote for it, the republicans will BOTH:

Beat him up because it does not go far enough ...

AND

Beat him up for the actual cuts.

5. So? Republicans blamed him for the Libya attack and anything and everything

that has gone wrong since 1/20/2009.

"Going over the cliff" is not an option if you give a shit about the poor and unemployed.

[treestar]

6. Or if the fiscal cliff indeed does damage

They will be blaming the economy on Obama in 2014. When it will be their fault. Hope the voters do not let them get away with it.

7. Most on DU will still support Obama...you can count on that!

As long as their is a (D) next to a name then all is rosy.
