Obama "My budget will ....not.....hurt students and seniors and middle-class families"*

[edhopper]

Full quote;
"My budget will reduce our deficits not with aimless, reckless spending cuts that hurt students and seniors and middle-class families, but through the balanced approach that the American people prefer, and the investments that a growing economy demands,"

Sorry Mr. President you are wrong, you will de facto hurt seniors with your budget.







*Pardon my overuse of ellipses for brevity, but I don't think I changes the meaning.

2. sigh..

some words have become so meaningless

[bhikkhu]

3. Perhaps a link to the details of the budget too?

I suppose its silly to ask, but I haven't seen any breakdowns or details at all, only a couple of quotes about it.

5. I think the details of the budget come out Wednesday

6. This is all I could find

http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget/Overview

You can go into the details from there, for social security for instance, but I don't find any mention of chained cpi...

My quote is accurate and the link doesn't change what he said. He still is accepting chained CPI, which will hurt seniors.

8. What a fucking LIE.

[edhopper]

9. that chained cpi

Won't hurt seniors?
Are you saying ALL the reports are lies?

[forestpath]

10. I'm saying OBAMA'S statement is a fucking lie.

[edhopper]

11. Thanks for clarifying

Couldn't tell who you were calling a liar.

12. He's right, actually.

They're not aimless, reckless spending cuts that hurt seniors and students and middle-class families. They're shameless, feckless spending cuts that hurt seniors and students and middle-class families.

13. Wrong wrong wrong.

Does Obama really believe that?

[markboxer]

14. If he says it wont

Then it wont. My president dont lie
