6. Obama has said he will veto any such attempt....
Since we know the pukes will not do anything to help Main Street prior to next year's elections, believing that the Koch brothers and the other uber-wealthy will help them buy the 2012 cycle, I say let them sit in their own stew.

The funny thing is these cuts will not take effect until 2013 so should the pukes take the WH and Senate majority and retain the House, they could make these changes then. Of course I certainly hope if that is the case the Democrats use the threat of filibuster to prevent anything from getting through the Senate.

First of all the military needs to be cut by AT LEAST 50% overall, not just 50% of the $1.2 trillion but the entire military budget needs to be cut in half. We do not need to spend the amount we do on the military. The only reason we do is because both the Democrats and the Republics are bought and paid for by the defense industries.

And as they attempt to make these changes I hope the Dems are recording every one of these appearances so they can be used against the pukes in 2012 - pukes = military industrial complex, dems = main street.
