Greed maddened progs want more plunder.

Democrats say they want to raise as much as $1 trillion in new revenues through tax reform later this year to balance Republican demands to slash mandatory spending.

Own it.

Time to sign over all paychecks to the Democrats.

I feel bad for McConnell. He’s right that our debt is too high and our entitlement programs are out of control. He’s right that we need to means-test these programs and raise the ages of eligibility. But the debt-ceiling and sequester deadlines won’t force us to make those cuts any more than the fiscal cliff did.

When would be a good time to make those cuts? The answer always seems to be between 'later' and 'never'. In the meantime we are to throw more booze at the spending drunkards in Washington?

ps: I don't feel bad for him as he had much to do with creating the problem.

There is no amount of fiscal rapine that will satisfy the socialists... Libbies... prygryssyves... or whatever the hell they are calling themselves this week. Even after they have fiscally raped the fiscally productive to death, they will exhibit an unhinged and unchanged desire to fiscally rape the corpses as well.

The same leverage Obama used to get taxes increased on the rich, fiscal conservatives can get spending cuts...the majority believe the government should cut spending!

"Once again, as with Obamacare, the people of the United States be damned! A recent Rasmussen poll indicates that 62% of Americans favor across-the-board spending cuts, but of that number only 57% think they are likely. It does, however, appear that 77% of households will see an increase in their taxes thanks to Congress and the White House."
