Reply #18: Like many of the other sound bite TV politicians

Hagel is playing a specific role. Hear me out.

We are the victims of an elaborate scheme.

These operatives created a spectacle, the debt ceiling crisis debate, complete with every sort of unreasonable behavior one could imagine thrust into the public eye. Unreasonable, even insane rhetoric was thrown in the public's face every day.

Now that the dust has settled Hagel sounds very reasonable when he says, "I think Obama should have embraced the Bowles-Simpson Commission findings." Hey, Chuck, Obama created the Fucking Bowles-Simpson Commission.

Hey, Hagel, The FUCKING Bowles-Simpson Commission didn't even embrace the Bowles-Simpson Commission findings! It was voted DOWN by the commission!

This is just more bullshit smokescreen to make cutting social security and medicare seem like a reasonable deal. Don't fall for this crap.
