Deficit Hawks?

++Jeb Bush spoke to the NRA and he mentioned the federal government has gotten too big under Obama (not) and that we should be concerned about our children and grandchildren.

++So what do the great deficit hawks do?

++Repeal the Estate tax--that's $263 billion over 10 years.

++Pass the "Doc Fix" for Medicare--that another $243 billion.

++The Defense Bill they are asking for another $63 billion above President Obama.

++I am sure I have missed a few but all these have no off-setting revenues or cuts. That's around $600 billion to the deficit.

++So when you hear the nonsense this coming year, remember they are at it again. Pushing the debt higher and higher.
