” Fine - cut $1 trillion in spending in the next 12 months”
Otherwise, no deal!
PEOPLE!!!!
Hello, we have to set ourselves up for November. We can’t do jack in real reforms until we have the senate and the White House. We will NOT get that if we blow this entirely with zero compromise platforms.
Look at the long story, look at the bigger picture. We have bigger fish to fry, and we can’t light the fire yet. We need the matches and the hibachi we don’t yet have.
And they are not true cuts but decreases in the increase of auto-spending.
Put on the damn brakes man! Then we can turn around.

EXACTLY. And they all think we’re morons and can’t see that. I’m sick of the whole bunch of spineless losers (on OUR side!!!!) in Washington :-(
As I understand it, the one to one relationship = cuts to an increase in the debt ceiling == will require Obama to come before Congress for another debt increase before elections are held in 2012. That is something that Obama really does not want because the fight at that time will be even bloodier than this one.
