There is nothing good in this deal.

Deep cuts in defense and medicare if the Congress refuses the SuperCongress recommendations (to raise taxes obviously)??

No more debt ceiling until AFTER the election.

No real spending cuts.

None of this is good for our side, how is this a compromise?

The debt ceiling goes to Feb. if it’s $900 billion. That’s before most primaries. Any attempt to raise it again will come during the height of campaigns.
