Yeh...I like the retirement downsizing farce......They save the $50,000 plus salary....but are still paying $50,000 plus in retirement benefits...........AND did not replace the non essential employee. What a savings!! Pay for no work !! What a concept.

RE :”Only in Washington could you get away with referring to both spending hikes and tax hikes as spending “cuts.” Perhaps it’s time those inside the Beltway stopped getting away with it.”

The standard excuse is to blame the MSM but the only real explanation is that Obama is smarter, at least cleverer, than congressional Republicans are as he is always out there working the voters.

Even on this point I have seen ‘conservative’ House members on Sunday shows trying to argue against this, here is what they say:
“No we didn't cut spending” and thats it. No details.

I fail to see how pointing out all the Lies, Fraud and Deception on behalf of the Ruling Class will help anybody’s Self Esteem.
