“...If the President and Congress can’t tackle spending on entitlements in this environment then they will never be able to. ....”
You do know the Rats do have the House?
When has a Rat cared about the deficit?
How is that a good environment to do anything positive on entitlements? Or controlling entitlement growth?
GOP Congressional clowns only claim to care if they’re doing photo ops in front of constituents who can count!
The only chance for the entitlement issue to be addressed at all is with the GOP holding both Houses. With the harder requirement being that most GOP’ers be not enamored with a permanent career in politics.
Whenever a Republican is in the White House. Just like the Republicans only care about the deficit when a Democrat is in the White House. I suppose my post is just wishful thinking.

LOL! Because they've done such a good job of it lately?
