Right Wing Nut Jobby Heritage Action Opposes Debt Deal

[jefferson_dem]

Heritage Action for America’s CEO Michael A. Needham released the following statement in response to the reported deal to raise America’s debt ceiling:

While this deal is moving in the right direction rhetorically thanks to pressure from conservatives, it still falls well short of the standards we have consistently laid out. At its core, the deal still relies on an insufficient level of cuts immediately in return for raising the debt ceiling over $2 trillion. We are skeptical of “super committees” tasked with brokering grand bargains and we are adamantly opposed to committees that are given the authority to raise taxes on the American people and to bring about the gutting of our national defense budget. This deal highlights how dysfunctional Washington has become and we will continue to oppose it as insufficient to the task at hand.

1. But I thought the President gave 'em everything they wanted!

Guess not.

2. Of course they do. They've been getting the teabaggers to parrot

their contention that the impending default is a ruse, a ploy.

3. Andrea Mitchell just called out the Tea Party as impossible who do not

care.

4. Heritage would oppose any deal as 'not enough'.

Who the hell are they foolin'?
