Senators ready to vote to increase deficit !

[kentuck]

Those that are prepared to vote for the $87 billion package for Iraq without questioning the damage of adding more to our deficit. The deficit is more of a threat to our country at this time than is terrorism. But they will vote without asking that we pay for it. They will not ask that we cut back on the huge taxcut for the wealthy and they will not ask that cuts be made elsewhere to make up the difference. They are like robots - they do just as they are asked.

This should make it easier for them to vote against it if they do not offset it with increased revenues or spending cuts. But they are of the mind that the "defense" of the nation permits them to vote for the $87 billion without asking questions. But it is not about the "defense" of the nation. It is a scheme and they are being used by this White House...
