Really! What party interested in reducing the debt and deficit would TURN DOWN $4 trillion in mostly cuts and some loophole ending on the wealthy, counter with a $2 trillion offer, all cuts, with no loophole closing, and conclude with total capitulation giving Obama TOTAL control over the debt ceiling? The (R)'s aren't serious about reducing the debt! They ARE serious about not letting their rich folk get taxed! Raising taxes now is like handing Charlie Sheen a couple million dollars. Just stupid. Show us you can control spending in a serious way (which will get the economy rolling again). Then, if you want to raise taxes to pay down the debt, we'll think about it. But you have to stop snorting the coke first.
