Say No To The Budget Deal

Of course, the Country Club Republicans love this plan, but conservatives like myself think the budget plan worked out sucks.
From CNBC: House Republicans "capitulated" in agreeing to the two-year budget deal reached last night and left the country to deal with an unsustainable fiscal situation until the peak of the presidential primaries in 2015, when nothing will get done, former federal budget director David Stockman told CNBC on Wednesday.
"First, let's be clear—it's a joke and betrayal," Stockman, who served under President Ronald Reagan, said on "Squawk on the Street." "It's the final surrender of the House Republican leadership to Beltway politics and kicking the can and ignoring the budget monster that's hurtling down the road."
Stockman added that the budget deal means lawmakers would take a "two-year vacation" from dealing with the country's fiscal situation and revisit it in 2015 at around the same time as the Iowa straw polls. Without an incumbent in the presidential race, both political parties will be too busy to touch the budget, he said.
While some hailed the budget deal as a breakthrough in Washington's political gridlock, Stockman compared the accord to "kicking the can" into "low Earth orbit."
"There's plenty of room, but they're unwilling to make the tough choices," he said. "Now, I understand Democrats doing that. The only hope of getting our fiscal situation under control is if the House Republicans stand up. And they've totally capitulated."

Paul Ryan says no taxes were raised, but the fees to support the sexual assaulters, brain dead TSA agents doubled and takes about $18,000,000,000 out of the U.S. economy.
Plus, they are going to cut military pensions?  Yeah, these veterans are the ones breaking the Federal budget and it's not like they didn't earn it with their high wages.
Here's hoping that Dr. Joe Heck and Mark Amodei of Nevada and Republican will vote no on this deal.
