I just saw this listed on Zerohedge from a link to Politico. If this is true....no I just can't believe it. This country will become a 3rd world banana republic overnight.
I want a refund Mr. President Barack Obama! I donated my social security SSDI money to you for real change. All I got was a complete capitulation to the Banksters and the Elite in this country.
WTF, FDR would roll over in his grave. You Mr. President are the biggest trojan horse the Democratic party has ever seen.
I have been in your words "bamboozeled". There are plenty of other cuts that can be made,military,hand outs to the rich with tax cuts,ect.
I give up! We need to nip this in the bud right now!

The tax deal negotiated by President Barack Obama and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky is just the first part of a multistage drama that is likely to further divide and weaken Democrats.
The second part, now being teed up by the White House and key Senate Democrats, is a scheme for the president to embrace much of the Bowles-Simpson plan — including cuts in Social Security. This is to be unveiled, according to well-placed sources, in the president’s State of the Union address.
The idea is to pre-empt an even more draconian set of budget cuts likely to be proposed by the incoming House Budget Committee chairman, Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), as a condition of extending the debt ceiling. This is expected to hit in April.
