Lib's don't want to cut entitlements. But they know that they can add cuts to entitlements to tax increases and some of the conservatives are going to salivate at it. And they know it creates the perceptions with the voters that Conservatives are all about cutting entitlements for the poor and are all for the rich.
Conservatives need to forget about cutting entitlements cause that is going to hurt them politically and focus on getting the overall spending down. When Republicans do tackle entitlements it ought to be focused on stopping and preventing fraud, not arbitrary cuts. They need to kill Obamacare. They need to work with that guy who ran the sting on the medicaid office and help him find fraud in the programs, since they don't seem to be able to do it.
My question was concerning a DOMA repeal. The Dems are pushing it now. Why didn’t they try this when they held both congressional chambers by decent margins and the Presidency?
