On Thursday, Ryan questioned whether generals are telling the truth about their budget.

“We don’t think the generals are giving us their true advice. We don’t think the generals believe that their budget is really the right budget,” he said at a budget summit hosted by National Journal. “I think there’s a lot of budget smoke and mirrors in the Pentagon’s budget.”

That provoked a retort from Dempsey.

“There’s a difference between having someone say they don’t believe what you said versus … calling us, collectively, liars,” Gen. Dempsey told reporters. “My response is: I stand by my testimony. This was very much a strategy-driven process to which we mapped the budget.”

1. “We don’t think "

That in a nutshell is the trouble with Repugnantcons. They don't think. They can't imagine.
They couldn't have foreseen. Etc.
