So, Senator McCain BELIEVES "Cap, Blah, Blah, Blah and Balance" is the right thing for the country.
Let me tell you what this irresponsible legislation does.
First, from "The Christian Post."
'Cut, Cap, and Balance' Is Responsible Approach, Say GOP Freshmen (click title to entry - thank you)
Christian Post Reporter
...Plans to vote on a “Cut, Cap, and Balance” bill on Tuesday in the House was the main topic. The bill would cut fiscal year 2012 spending by $111 billion, cap future spending at 18 percent of GDP, and propose a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution....
The purpose of this legislation is to REDISTRIBUTE the responsibility for the National Debt to the Middle Class and Poor.
The Republicans are to scared to actually own up to the fact they incurred the National Debt as it is today by avoiding recalling The Bush Tax Cuts when it was apparent the nation was going to war. They simply sent out checks to the country instead of raising more taxes for the one reason the nation would understand. We no longer had a surplus we could count on, the nation was going to war to defeat al Qaeda.
No, they didn't RECALL the Bush Tax Cuts.
They not only sent out checks, but, they top loaded the construction business, levied favors for banks and approved subsidies for oil barrons. In my opinion, if oil drillers can't afford the business they are in, they should not be in it.
They not only levied favors and bailouts for investment bankers, they allowed those responsible to walk away without legal consequences, thus allowing them to do it all over again.
These actions by Republicans in the years 2000-2009, caused the nation the hardship they face today with lower real estate values, sincerely small businesses unable to get loans for nearly two years and a work force abandoned.
So.
Now.
That the devil has delivered his calling card in the form of the National Debt Ceiling, Republicans are once again placing UNDO burden on the Middle Class and Poor without IMPOSING on their cronies, wealthy and Wall Street. The oil subsidies stay, the disproportionate Bush Tax Cuts for the wealthy stay and tax rates for Wall Street will be slashed whenever possible.
The Republicans, and among them Hannity and Neil Boortz are two of the worst, always complain how Democrats redistribute the wealth.
BUT.
They never complain about how the Republicans ALWAYS REDISTRIBUTE THE DEBT !!!

The Republicans need to get serious. I am very surprised a former candidate for President, John McCain would actually endorse rhetoric rather than delivering "THE TRUTH" of the measure going before the House tomorrow.
Using the US House of Representatives as a POLITICAL PLATFORM with legislation that extends suffering to those powerless to do anything about it, is unethical, should be vigorously investigated for corruption and needs to be replaced with legislation that is meaningful RATHER THAN political.
I cannot believe this is happening to my country.
A dog and pony show. McCain one of the ring masters.
