most of the "cuts" he is saying eh will agree are coming from planned reduction in fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan. So don't worry he is still a good democrat out there trying to spin things to make people think he is reasonable and it is all the the mean republicans who are stopping things. There is no chance the republicans will buy this little piece of theater so you have nothing to worry about.
But man, it's all theater. Most of them aren't being honest right now. It's all about elections.
Reid/Democrats cave, Republicans win debt ceiling debate -
