Government Shutdown Threat Prompts Obama, GOP To Scramble To Strike Budget Deal

Friday, April 8, 2011


Democrats caved on EVERYTHING that Republican­s came to the table wanting.  AND MORE.  And it was AFTER Democrats caved, after Democrats agreed to $31 BILLION in programs and services that are vital to the poor and middle classes, that Republican­s reneged on the deal and said, "That was easy....We want even more."

We're hearing now that Democrats caved yet again, and last night agreed to $78 BILLION in cuts to programs and services for the poor and middle classes.


$78 BILLION.


That means that no matter how this ends, the best that the People can hope for is that it's ONLY $78 billion in cuts to essential programs and services that they need.

I have a question for Democratic voters:


Did you put Obama and Democrats into office to cave to Republican demands, and enact Republican legislatio­n?


Right now, if Republican­s drop these latest riders, their latest demands (defunding Planned Parenthood­, EPA regulatory capabiliti­es, etc.), Democrats in Congress will go ahead with what's been negotiated so far: The $78 billion in cuts to programs and services for the poor and middle classes.     

Do you support Democrats doing that?
