Boner is a complete liar on that, and it is amazing that so many people have bought his latest turd of a lie. An overwhelming majority of Republicans in polls have said they don't support the deal while a solid majority (60% or so) of Democrats say they support it. Why don't RePUKES like it? They don't like it because they ignorantly think it means NEW spending and because they think OBAMA is the one that got what he wanted out of it and NOT Boner. So with his latest lie, Boner is trying to make it sound like it is mostly what he wanted in order to make it more palatable to his rank and file.
We also know Bonoer is lying because he really wanted to cut the hell out of Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security which he did not get to do, and because it makes defense cuts which he sure as hell didn't like. It also puts a truly bi-partisan joint committee in place with deep defense cut triggers which he hates if they don't get a bi-partisan longer-term deal. And under all his bullshit, he sure as hell knows that the American people will not tolerate debt reduction only on the backs of the middle class and the poor. They overwhelmingly want revenue from the rich, and he knows he will have to concede bigtime on that.
No, Pukes sure as all hell didn't get everything they wanted in the deal, not by a long shot. It was pretty damn balanced. People need to see the big picture and to stop looking at this through purist lenses, on BOTH sides of the spectrum.
And Boner is lying like hell about this 98% bullshit. And he knows it.
