At President Obama's
first post-election press conference he stressed his eagerness to work
with Republicans.
Without being asked about Medicare or Social Security, he urged "deficit
reduction that includes entitlement changes."
Reporters didn't ask about the option of cutting military spending, and
the President never brought it up.
Does this sound like ingredients of a Grand Bargain you'd like to see?
Tell
the President and Congress to expand Medicare and Social Security, to
invest in green energy, to raise taxes on the rich and corporations, and
to cut military spending back to the level of 12 years ago.
Please forward this email widely to like-minded friends.
