[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a conservative but I think we need to go back to Clinton-era tax rates.  Why?  [b]because of math [/b]and because I am terrified by the deficit.[/quote]

You're awesome.  Signed - a liberal who feels the same way[/quote]

Can you hear my "Amen!"?

xo,
Another liberal[/quote]

I'm the conservative who posted that - to go back to Clinton-era rates.  But I also want to cut the F out of the budget.  Raise the SS/Medicare eligibility age, trim defense, etc.  Hopefully you can give me an Amen to that as well.[/quote]

Trim defense as long as it's the pork Congress writes in, such as the costly, forced relocation of Crystal City defense jobs to the Alexandria MARK center.  All politics:  not on Metro, security an issue, snarled traffic, etc..... http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2011/sep/12/mark-center-security-a-serious-issue/.  
Unfortunately, trim defense is now "get rid of military retirement and health care". Health care, housing and retirement are presented to recruits as part of salary.  Fine, get rid of them and significantly raise base salary. There are families in the military on WIC. [/quote]
