So tell me, what will they cut first to cut the deficit? Won't be defense... what then?

[NotThisTime]

How far back do they want the American people to go? This election was bought and paid for by big business.

[Lost-in-FL]

1. It won't be their salary. nt

[msongs]

[JustFiveMoreMinutes]

13. Cuts??? CUTS??!! WHAT CUTS!!!???! Angle & Rossi said..

I live in NV so had Angle to vote out...

I work in Seattle so had to listen to Rossi's stupid ads day/in/day/out.. on and on and on and on.

CUTS!???!

The only 'CUT' being promised was GOVERNMENT WASTE to balance the budget.

Those things being mentioned do NOT sound like 'waste'!

(Sarcasm out the kazoo and tounge in cheek till it bleeds)

[Naturyl]

15. Waste = poor people.

Count on it.

[JustFiveMoreMinutes]

17. Hmmm... they'll have to tread lightly on that one since the South

... is pretty unwealthy as a whole and relies on Federal $s altho they take it and damn it at the same time.

Let's see if they don't have it how their damning changes..............

[in_cog_ni_to]

16. Social programs...Medicare, Social Security, Headstart, anything that helps the poor.

They have been chomping at the bit to destroy SS and will try. They aren't going to be able to cut shit though...we still have the Senate Majority and Obama has a VETO PEN.

[Ex Lurker]
