Elections 2012

I'm sure ryan and him would have made some tough cuts to entitlements, somebody is going to have to and it would appear they had they balls to do so.
how are you feeling about prop 30?
i'm so happy i can shop in oregon no sales tax

of course they were going to make entitlement cuts, and then go spend it somewhere else. That was the problem, that's why they were completely and utterly full of unadulterated shit. Ron Paul was the only guy that was gonna say, it's all coming down.

It's inevitable now no balanced budget = sequester in jan.

Wait.....you thought there was gonna be a balanced budget with Romney? BUWHWHAHAHHAHAHAHAA

major reform is needed. Major cuts will have to be made everywhere, at least for a while.

America needs to go through something similar to a debt reorg/repayment plan like people do instead of BK.

The problem is that it's hard to cut entitlements once they've been given. No selfish bastard politician wants to risk their reelection by doing that. Forget about the good of the country, they need to keep their jobs. So they talk about making the rich pay for it. Problem is the rich know how to get around paying for it. So the middle class pays and slowly becomes poor, and then they vote for more entitlements. See where this is headed?

Barry claims he's going to divert credit card war spending to credit card domestic spending...

nothing retard about lowering taxes and reducing spending, the extreme nature of the tea party is a media creation IMO

Going back to some of us living in reality while some of us dont....I would point out to you that, thus far, Obama has lowered taxes and his "reckless spending binge" doesnt exist:

FactCheck.org : Obama’s Spending: ‘Inferno’ or Not?

But again, I'm just going off the facts here...

i was refering to the tea party, and i don't think i've mentioned obamas spending in this thread.
and i've read that before, it's a good read and the various links paint a good picture...a picture IMO that doesn't absolve obama of creating debt.
you have your political reality and i have mine, no need to be a dick to a good bro, plz stop it now

It's inevitable now no balanced budget = sequester in jan. and they won't pass a budget. Which means unemployed troops which IMO is messed up cause he military is getting he biggest cut.

Actually, the $ for the troops coming back is immune to the budget debacles.

You see, when the POTUS ran the executive order for veteran funding, he also put in a provision that even if there was a budget freeze, the VA will still get the $ anyways.

I wasn't talking about the va funds. I was talking about military cuts in general which will lead to a reduced standing number of soilders who will be discharged.

I work very closely with the va for work and they are still terribly underfunded.

1. the VA is slated for 4 more billion dollars this FY. Potus and a couple GOP House members worked together to get this done.

2. I don't know where you have been for the past 15 years, but the military has been downsizing at a pretty constant rate since the 90's.
The Commandant of the Marine Corps, General of the Army, Chief of Naval Operations are the ones that decided the new stupid ass reasons to downsize their respective services.

If you have had any military time you would notice that the high ranking people don't stop ordering big shiny new cherry wood desks when they show up at new commands. Or don't stop ordering their business vehicles custom. ect ect.

If the budget was so important they would make due with what is there.
