There aren't any CUTS. There are tiny, insignificant reductions in programmed increases in spending. A CUT would be spending less next year than this year.
This is the kind of leftist, lying language that just infuriates me. I don't know of any country that taxes non-repatriated foreign corporate earnings, like the left wants to do here. There are only 5 countries in the world (including the U.S.) that are stupid enough to tax repatriated foreign earnings. America is the only country in the world to tax foreign earnings of individuals, who work overseas. In fact, even if you renounce your citizenship and move out of America, the government still claims that you owe it income taxes (on everything you make for the next 10 years). The government and the leftist scum who control are morons and tyrants.
The HELL you say? That's a concept that is completely foreign to the statists who infest DC.
So why not use these for spending cuts instead, all of these are total bullshit but not on the chopping block..... why???

When asked by a Liberal what I bought my Granddaughter for her 1st birthday I replied, "MORE AMMUNITION"!!!! -----------------------------"People sleep peaceably in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
Ask the Tea Party and John Boehner, remember the deal gave him 98% of what he wanted and was supported by most members of the House Tea Party caucus. You guys STILL don't seem to realize that the Republicans took control of the House this past January.
Tagline for sale - inquire within
You guys STILL don't seem to realize that the Republicans took control of the House this past January. That list "IS" what they asked for, and was told to go piss off!!!! And you "STILL SEEM TO FORGET" that no matter what the House proposes the Senate still has to vote on it and approve it...... If it gets voted on at all, because Fairy Harry Reid won't bring certain things to the floor because he's afraid "THEY WILL PASS"........ Almost 900 days and counting and still no budget proposal by the Dumbassocrats!!

Is this what you're talking about? WASHINGTON — The White House has identified 12,218 properties the federal government no longer needs, but the administration says Congress must act to reach the $15 billion President Obama hopes to save in three years by dumping unneeded property. "...all of the equations in neoclassical economics are rubbish. The differential equations describe nothing. Economics is not about mathematics, it is about the human being." Sandeep Jaitly
Yep. Let's imagine that Obama is sincere in his desire to cut the deficit. I don't believe that, but let's just imagine it. Who is standing in his way? Harry Reid, who is the biggest obstructionist the Congress has ever seen in its history. Harry Reid's Senate hasn't even voted on a budget in over two years. They won't vote on anything. Everything get's "tabled" so that leftist scum suckers can claim that they never voted for or against spending cuts. They are pathetic wimps. The GOP House passed a budget this year. They also passed an additional bill to cut spending. It wasn't enough, but at least they passed something. Harry Reid tabled it. Cowards.
That does look familiar, not 100% sure that was the list I seen.... but the figures match.....

You're being way too nice, you need to add in quite a few 4 letter words (in any language you choose) and that would be more accurate......

Three years to save a measley $15 billion? BULL SHIT! GET SERIOUS, you bunch of teet sucking parasites! Texas alone (this year) has blood sucking expenditures (welfare/FS/Medical/housing/incarceration, amounting to almost $9 billion, get rid of those, just for a start. Illegal Aliens costs U.S. taxpayers about $113 billion a year at the federal, state and local level… The annual outlay that illegal aliens cost U.S. taxpayers is an average amount per native-headed household of $1,117... Education for the children of illegal aliens constitutes the single largest cost to taxpayers, at an annual price tag of nearly $52 billion... California faced a budget deficit of $14.4 billion in 2010-2011, hit with an estimated $21.8 billion in annual expenditures on illegal aliens. New York's $6.8 billion deficit is smaller than its $9.5 billion in yearly illegal alien costs. But more than likely, the black plague sitting at the WH will probably sell off, or give away, more US soil to foreigners, and raise taxes to cover their losses...JMHO!
Actually I thought that figure was higher, somewhere over the $300 billion mark... Only the states seem to be interested in dealing with the illegal alien problem, probably because they are footing most of the bills and having to deal with all the crime and other problems.... And then when a state tries to pass some legislature to deal with the problem, then somebody in Washington tries to say "You can't do what you want in you're own state"...... Until you get some people in Washington who are interested in doing what's right instead of what will get them some votes you're going to have this problem..... Once you get rid of the Democrats then the states will probably have free reign to do what they want, but probably won't get much support from who are left......

Get rid of the people, or the expenditures? Illegal Aliens costs U.S. taxpayers about $113 billion a year at the federal, state and local level… The annual outlay that illegal aliens cost U.S. taxpayers is an average amount per native-headed household of $1,117... Education for the children of illegal aliens constitutes the single largest cost to taxpayers, at an annual price tag of nearly $52 billion... Ending the WOD and subsidies for American corn would probably do more to keep Mexicans in Mexico than building a fence and militarizing the border. I'm all for both and would include holding employers responsible responsible for hiring illegals. In any case, our economy is so bad illegals are going back home.

As long as corporations are people and money is free speech, ain't gonna happen. Factory farms, meat packers, hospitality, construction and every other business that covets cheap labor, will see to it that candidates who are friendly to their "needs" will be well funded - and well funded candidates win elections. One you get rid of Democrats, you'll have one party rule - just let that sink in for a moment.

They weren't told to piss off - the got 98% of what they wanted. Most of them voted FOR the debt deal.

Rick Perry likes illegal immigrants

John Boehner is the guy who refused to take a $4 billion debt deal because it included $1.2 billion in new revenues. Republicans aren't serious about cutting the deficit, as each deal proves.

That needs to be said over and over and over again. And that it's also the number one reason for the union busting movement. Some posters here want it both ways!
Yea right...... ROTFLMMFAO.......

Good for Boehner. The government takes enough money out of the economy. It is more important that the people have money then the parasites in Washington DC.
Republican rule was better?

Which one/ones are you referring to????? If you're going where I think you're going they should have ran as Democrats instead of Republicans.... they would have been received with open arms by them because they are just like them...... But then again the Left has standards to uphold don't they...... Carter, Obozo, Clinton, Frank, Rangel, Weiner, Wu, Magazzu..... etc....etc...... so maybe that's why they ran as Pubbys, cause they weren't trashy enough......
