About the only thing
that we can say that the Congress does well is that they really know how
to spend the taxpayer's money!
These are cuts that can be made
without an iota of negative effect.

And what about CUTOUT completely for the BASTARD, ANTI-CHRIST, STATE of ISRAEL.
I SAY ELIMINATE IT A L L IT IS BOGUS CORPORATE BULLSHIT AND PAUL RYAN IS A NWO BOY. HE IS A PISS ANT AND NOT GOOD FOR THIS NATION. ACCORDING TO HIS VOTING RECORD....HE IS A TRAITOR. QUIT LISTENING TO ALL THE REPUBLIPUKERS AND DEOMOJACKASSES.... THEY ARE ALL FOR THE CORPORATIONS THAT ARE KILLING OUR NATION....
Or cut the defense budget by only 10% and you'll save 150 BILLION dollars. That's not a typo; the 2012 US defense budget was totaled at just under 1.5 trillion dollars.
How can anyone turn a blind eye to the absolutely egregious amount of money that goes into our 'defense' (there's an Orwellian term for ya) budgets? It's absolutely jaw-dropping how much money we spend on our military.
I truly believe we could get by just fine on 90% of what we're spending now.
