uh yeah, is it that you don't want to tell the truth or are incapable of it? Obama didn't say he would veto any attempt by congress to fix the cuts.. Jesus, really? The veto threat was to Congress for trying to get around the sequester they imposes upon themselves..
wtf Mike? do you even vet your news slants anymore or just go with what Hannity and Rush tell you like it's gospel..
where in the hell do you get "Obama said he would veto any attempt by Congress to fix those cuts?"
congress should get their shit together, don't you think? wouldn't it be nice to have an actual debt-reduction bill? huh, that's what this 'veto' threat was about.. it's time for Congress to put on their big-boy pants and come up with a bi-part plan and not eek their way around the sequester like they were trying to do.. IOW, the veto threat was something you should be happy with since it was given to force them to work out something for this country instead of just running for the election..
For once, you should be on-board with this president since you're all about debt-reduction and all.. but the fact that you're making this stuff like this, kinda proves that no, you're not hell-bent on debt-reduction, you're just hell bent on saying "No" to anything Obama does, even when it's your own philosophy..
That was illuminating!
You actually excerpted articles that said exactly what I was saying, and you were using it to try disprove what I was saying!
Weird.
The programmed cuts that are to take place due to the supercommitte's failure include medicare and defense cuts. THOSE are the defense cuts I was talking about!
Sorry I couldn't have been clearer and you still couldn't understand it.
