Gohmert Slams Debt Deal: Hard to See Any Cuts "When you pull the bill and you actually see that gee, for 2013 you have $526 billion for security category and $501 billion for non-security and 10 years later those have been increased $200 billion it’s hard for me to see how that’s a cut.”
The above was discussed Thursday by Rush Limbaugh
"So somewhere on college campi all across the fruited plain students are being told that as part of this debt deal, Republicans have cut funding for education. So that's why the guy who we just spoke to on the phone, his liberal buddy, said, "Yeah, yeah, the Republicans cut $2 billion from student aid!" (sigh)
"This is how they work. Where is the morality in this? You see, I don't think that it can be said that one side in this debate we're having in this country is no more moral than the other. It is clear that our ideological opponents epitomize immorality. I mean these people lie. That barely scratches the surface in describing what they're capable of and what they do."....
"The amount of money spent on Pell grants in this stupid debt deal goes from $3 billion to almost $13 billion, and the Republicans are getting demonized for cutting when spending has actually increased by almost a factor of four! Where's the morality in that?" Emphasis added.
