There must be thousands of things like this that could be cut if the GOP is afraid of entitlements. After all, if they aren’t going to cut this crap, its pretty hard to believe they’ll go after the really big things.

Well, first of all, I don't think any real 'money' exists or is being loaned to anyone.
I think obummy has his hand on some 'head' ... uhhh ... person ... in Ceara and a 'date' is being arranged.
Look ... if there's no gold, there's no 'money' ... just promises that are so much easier to manipulate with a cashless society.
Somehow people get numbers attributed to their 'account' and they use those umbers to stay alive, be happy, and get laid.
