1. How did you feel about this budget deal before the CBO announced this?

3. I felt good about it....
because I did not have a knee jerk reaction to it like so mnay do here when it comes to Obama....I saw the details for the first time on CNN (before the CBO) and it really did not sound bad at all...as a matter of fact the repubs gave in to Obama on many items....

2. Sounds more and more like the Repubs got the short end of the stick
No riders, (way) less money actually cut, having to beg Democrats for votes for final passage.

Sounds like a big fat Republican win to me!!!
:sarcasm:

What did Obama supposedly "cave" on, again? :shrug:
