We should call their bluff.

I know I would agree to a bigger % cut in my pension and benefits than the GOP is willing to accept as a rise in their taxes. Meanwhile, Paul Ryan himself is bleating about how many defense industry jobs will be lost if mandatory cuts in military procurement go into effect.

So the great budget hawk doesn't believe in paying teachers and workers a decent wage, or taking care of the sick, pensioners, school kids or college students, but he's singing the blues about about highly paid defense workers losing their share of military pork. My heart bleeds for them.

This was their idea, let them stew in their own toxic juices, now. But under NO circumstances should these fascist thugs get a penny of tax cuts that aren't balanced by cuts to THEIR pet programs and big campaign money contributors. If they want more money, let them cash in their Cayman accounts. Or even better, they can go get a job. It might do them good to flip some burgers for a while.

Its about time they exercised a little personal responsibility instead of expecting us to carry all the weight for them. OOORah!
