Why not just answer the question, lilmike?
Why is Obama doing this?
What reason does he have to veto the Republicans attempts to circumvent the defense cuts?
It's not partisanship. He said he would do the same thing if it was dems trying to circumvent entitlement cuts.
shhhh leave him be, he's just mad that he's been caught 3 times since his return making erroneous claims based on his poor 'sourcing' abilities..
he really should have kept those skills up since they do come in handy when trying to have a conversation with people who are aware, instead of ones who don't have a fucking clue and just want it fed to them like a baby bird awaiting it's mother..
back to topic..
I don't think we'll have to worry about any massive defense cut. Congress has a year to figure out a real debt-reduction plan before any supposed cuts on either side happen. this was just away for McCain and the other GOP'ers to start a whiney-day on how Obama wants to cut defense and is really dangerous for the national security of this country. He's just not 'american' enough to understand.... cause killing OBL,al-Awlaki, and
this list of course just really chaps their asses since they never dreamed he'd be that kind of President..so they will glam on any made up fiction they can to drown out that he's been pretty good at it.. better than the last guy even..
I think they biggest 'superfail' was Obama,or anyone else, expecting congress to work together on anything. The GOP doesn't even believe in their taunted 'do not raise taxes' anymore since Obama wants the payroll gift tax extended, they (the GOP) want that tax re-instated.. There really isn't anything the GOP will toss over if Obama backs it. So why does he continue to think he can get anything out of this, or any, crop of GOP'ers is the mystery and the supefail IMO..
