“All this nonsense about Boehner being forced out or that we somehow lost is absolute hogwash.
We have now changed the terms of the debate. The country is no longer talking about whether to cut, now we talk only about how much. President Obama was forced to go on TV tonight and essentially embrace spending cuts - just months ago he was busy pushing spending increases.”
This is true.
We have President Obama now taking ‘credit’ for a budget that is the ‘largest cut in spending in history’ ... Obama drinking the Tea!!!
This is like Clinton in 1995 ‘the era of big government is over’ ... next 6 years the govt - under GOP budgets grew smaller than at any time in the previous 30 years (or the next 10 :-( ) ... so this day IS historic ...
This is not the end, but the beginning of the end of Big Government Obam-unism.
Elections matter. And this agreement has shifted the debate significantly.
A cancer which is growing more slowly just lets you die more slowly.
