RE: Clarifying: We’re told the cut is $22 billion in fiscal year 2012 from the adjusted CBO baseline, and $42 billion in fiscal year 2013.

This is even smaller than the $60 Billion the GOP was threatening to prune in the 2011 budget earlier this year before they chickened out.
What do these legislators take us for, fools?
Just look at some of the Republican bootlickers on this thread caving in. "Oh no, we must compromise or we'll lose an election". As if losing an election is of any importance when you may lose your country at any moment.
As if the Left has ever considered election consequences when advancing their agenda. They never stop attacking no matter the consequences. Attack, advance two steps, hold, lose half a step, attack again.
The Right in this country hasn't even fielded a decent defense in 80 years, let alone an offense.
People follow leaders. The average man isn't an idealogue. He'll follow the strong and aggressive. It's human nature. The left has been the strong aggressor for 4 generations now.
I believe our fate is sealed.
