It won't just be the repugs that pay The price.
MSM will be sure to spread the blame.
I voted for President Obama and he is
Out there talking about a chained CPI.
I feel betrayed by him as well as by the
Other Dems willing to go along with this.
Instead of raising the cap it is the old/poor that get the shaft!
The Jamie Diamonds rule this country!!!!
