They didn’t get close to 75%. They got zero percent!
Actually, less than zero. As I said, we HAD control of the House. But they surrendered and gave away our slender hard won conservative beachhead without even putting up a fight! They’ve now diluted our tea party conservative power in the House and shared it with the socialist democrat/RINO senate and the Marxist president! Idiots! Cowards! Traitors!
The House controls spending, taxing and borrowing. Had they simply held the line and voted NO, then the feds would’ve been forced to cut the spending. And it doesn’t matter to me where they cut, because at least ninety percent of the feral (run away) government is UNCONSTITUTIONAL anyway. It ALL needs to be cut one way or another and WILL be!! This I guarantee you!! If not voluntarily, then by total collapse!! I prefer the former.
I didn’t agree with West’s statatement that they got 75%.
I agree with you, they got nothing and less than nothing, they gave Obama what he really wanted, a huge increase in the debt ceiling all the way to 2013, so Obama won’t have to deal with it just before the election. And how could they agree that 50% of the cuts to come out of defense, instead of all the useless programs and departments.
They got suckered by the Dems, as usual, sad to say.
