So tell me, what will they cut first to cut the deficit? Won't be defense... what then? |
|
How far back do they want the American people to go? This election was bought and paid for by big business.

I know from personal experience that they would absolutely love to take the food off my table. Very few things would please them more.

13. Cuts??? CUTS??!! WHAT CUTS!!!???! Angle & Rossi said.. |

Edited on Tue Nov-02-10 11:33 PM by JustFiveMoreMinutes
I live in NV so had Angle to vote out...
I work in Seattle so had to listen to Rossi's stupid ads day/in/day/out.. on and on and on and on.
CUTS!???!
The only 'CUT' being promised was GOVERNMENT WASTE to balance the budget.
Those things being mentioned do NOT sound like 'waste'!

They have been chomping at the bit to destroy SS and will try. They aren't going to be able to cut shit though...we still have the Senate Majority and Obama has a VETO PEN.
