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.
]http://thehill.com/blogs/defcon-hill/budget-approriations/194963-obama-to-gop-lawmakers-on-voiding-sequestration-cuts-qnoq]President Obama on Monday evening threatened to veto any legislation that would void the $600 billion in national defense cuts that would kick in if lawmakers fail to cut a debt-reduction deal.holy crap you're hell bent on splicing whatever you can together to make an erroneous point aren't you?
the veto threat is not Obama saying he will veto any attempt congress makes, it's any attempt congress makes in trying to get around the sequester without a true deficit-reduction plan. That sequester is painful for a reason, to force them to act.. you should be ashamed that you are OK with them squirming out of their own self-imposed 'sword of Damocles'.. but instead, you're pulling a Romney again and stopping Obama's sentence where you think it will do the most damage.. The sentence is not
"Obama said he would veto any attempt by Congress to fix those cuts" It's
"Obama said he would veto any attempt by Congress to get around the sequester if lawmakers fail to cut a debt-reduction deal"superfail indeed..
