From HUFF POST

@ChrisWeigant reports in Huffington Post: “Republicans have staged these showdowns and shutdowns over the question of the budget and the deficit. Unfortunately for them, the deficit is falling at a faster rate than it has since World War II. The economy is improving, tax revenues are up, and spending has been cut. This takes the wind out of the Republicans' austerity sails. Make no mistake about it, this battle is not about the federal budget in any way, shape, or form. If there was some underlying "cut deficits" strategy to the Republican shutdown, then why would the House have passed a budget bill on the brink of the shutdown which increased the debt by $29 billion? Yes, you heard that right -- House Republicans, this Monday, wanted the Senate to increase the debt by billions to cut an Obamacare tax they didn't like. So -- please -- don't try to tell me this is about deficits or the budget, because Republicans' own actions prove that to be false.”

THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE

Republicans claim to want fiscal responsibility, but we can clearly see they want to increase the National Debt so that their backers can keep a few pennies more of their ill-gotten gains from outsourcing American jobs.

Moreover, their objection is actually to the fact that this Democratic President (like the last one) is CUTTING the deficit that each Republican president doubled – and doing sop while improving the economy and American standard of living.

THE MOST HARM TO THE MOST PEOPLE

as THE Republican policy, the evidence is clear.

VOTE REPUBLICAN –

you can  DESTROY AMERICA & Back al-Qaeda
