big, big picture for the future of our country. i am still happy to have a discussion about entitlements. obama was given a plan to get it under control and created the thing and blew it off. at least, the country is finally going to learn how broke all of this stuff is. and something has to be done to fix it. as longg as you are bringing up simpson-bowles. it should be noted to bowl s wrote a colyum he had criticisms for both the president and governor mitt romney and praise about certain aspects of the plan. there is a lot of it is a campaign bitterness. it is hopefully better than the sewer with no bottom.
