I am curious as to who else is getting cut in the govt? congress? foreign aid? illegals? sure, that may not make up for the deficit but if I was a soldier that just completed 20 yrs and was face with paying for my insurance (after tours of duty in war zones) I would be furious. It is a wonder they don’t descend on DC like the OWS crowds

Why did the GOP agree to this crap? Why not an across the board spending cut that would hit every agency?

Won't surprise me when they do; only without fanfare, with purpose and unlike the douche's at OWS, with finality.

The line between "foreign and domestic" isn't so grey anymore if one actually takes the time to read the Constitution at face value with none of the deluged "living document" crap we hear bandied about these days.

Today's politicians are selfish and corrupt. They hide behind a "vote for what their constituency wants" instead of doing what is right for their constituency and they damn well know it. It is a death spiral as they keep selling their vote to remain employed by a constituency that discovered it can vote itself the treasury if only they can find the right sellout to send to Federal and State Houses'.

We are truly fighting what Ayn Rand called "the looters".
