"House Republicans basked in triumph after the razor-thin passage of a sweeping budget cut plan in the wee hours of Friday morning."
Ok let's look at what these champions of the people accomplished:
Cut food stamps? Check.
Cut student loans? Check.
Cut Medicaid? Check.
Passed another tax cut for the rich? Check.
Now ask yourself, does this sound like a fair way to balance a budget, on the backs of the poor and middle class? And then to top it off with another tax cut? Look at these cuts, and explain how they show a strong moral center. How does denying food stamps to the poor, and college to the middle class help build strong families?
I would seriously love to hear a conservative defend this type of action, refusing to take back the $250 million for the "bridge to nowhere in Alaska," (sure they killed the bridge, but the state gets to keep the money for whatever they can think up)and refusing to take away the tax cuts companies get for moving the offices over seas, but instead taking money away from the poor and middle class. How do these people live with themselves at night?
