(10,622 posts)before the negotiations are at work, during negotiations and after -that's the way he sold us Romney/Newt care and is trying to lead the congressional Democrats to sell cuts to a program that has nothing at all to do with the deficit, cuts that only the wealthy want.
Face facts or admit you agree to the fictitious need to cut entitlements and support cuts to the elderly and disabled, just to steal their trust fund.
You can't have it both ways. Sanders is the only one not waving the white flag.
Obama's agenda appears to be the same as Pete Peterson's, not surprising he appointed Simpson/Bowles, they have heavy connections to Peterson's various groups

He is making it a very unpopular Democratic idea, the polls are what they are, voters will hate the ones taking credit for this theft, and that is why it will hurt Democrats, most everyone that votes hates the crap out of what he is selling here.
