The GOP promised Americans that they would cut 100 billion out of the budget this year--so they fought back and forth and settled on 38 billion which then ---because of fuzzy math--turned into a measly 350 million dollars--out of a 3.7 trillion dollar budget--with a deficit just this year of 1.7 trillion dollars.

Sarah Palin was at a Tea Party event over the weekend in Madison Wisconsin and just BLASTED the GOP--with this statement:

She's right. The 2010 election year was a mandate to cut the deficit-government spending and the size of government. And we all should be holding our elected officials feet to the fire. The only ones that voted against JUST cutting 38 billion out of the budget were Michelle Bachman and several other freshmen congressmen who wanted much more. The GOP capitulated to go along to get along with big liberal spending policies. If they keep this up--they will lose Tea Party and conservative support.

What you continually fail to understand is that all politics is local. There was no mandate. There never will be a mandate. No matter how many times you click your heels together and wish for one, it won't happen.

Because, all politics is local.
