WASHINGTON (Reuters) – Just hours after across-the-board spending cuts officially took effect, President Barack Obama pressed Congress on Saturday to work with him on a compromise to halt a fiscal crisis he said was starting to “inflict pain” on communities across the United States.
I am sick to death of hearing that word come out of the mouth of every Demorat that ever was.
Why is it that all the compromising has to come from the Republican side of the aisle?
Republicans insist that any deficit-reduction replacement deal include only spending cuts. Democrats want a mix of spending cuts and tax increases.
O-idiot wants more tax revenue to counter the cuts, which doesn’t make any sense that is playing a zero sum game, cut here and raise there and what you have is nothing, zero, zip, nada.
I would bet my most expensive pair of engraved silver spurs that Congress will not be taking a pay cut, nor will their staffers any time soon.
The only ones who will be grabbing their ankles will be “We the PEOPLE”.
We need to get rid of the 546 vermin who reside in the Cesspool known as Washington D.C. while we still have a country, because it appears that these snakes don’t care what happens to the country as long as they keep getting theirs.
