McConnell has his fingerprints all over the massive cuts to the military.

McConnell tells budget negotiators to keep sequester cuts

McConnell to House GOP: Hold Line on Sequester

McConnell is selling out the US military, and he has resisted softening the cuts to National Defense at every step. During last year's "fiscal cliff" negotiations, it was he that insisted the cuts take place, despite their damage to the military.

And he is doing all of this while there are zero cuts to Entitlements - and HE has been there from the beginning, including the 2011 Budget Control Act formula that punished the DoD with 50% of the Sequester cuts despite being only 17% of the budget.

Screw this guy.

As you point out, McConnell’s certainly screwing conservatives.
