The dem sweethearts(Social Security and Medicaid)are exempt, medicare cuts are limited to 2%, the tax increases are immediate, the cuts(other than probably military)are spread out over 10 years(and Charlie Brown knows what this means, they'll never happen).
Besides, any negative effect on the economy will be blamed on the republican controlled House by the media...that and Obama no longer worries about elections...so what's not to like?
The only downside I see is if the dems would have taken the House...then they would have owned it.
If there is one thing that should have been learned from this election...perception is more relevant than reality...and perception is still controlled(80%+)by a leftist media.
Frankly I don't care one way or the other...as far as I'm concerned the whole thing went off the cliff years ago...the consequences just haven't been felt...yet.
That is not true..
We hold the House for now.. We will loose it in three cycles, with the plans in place to steal every election from now on.. NOTHING gets passed, no laws Nada, if the GOP House doesn't pass it.. Everything stops..
