Politico, when you read English sentences, do you understand them? Or, more likely, do you just selectively pay attention to whatever you want that will allow you to drop as many of your memes into your posts as possible? I said both painful spending cuts and raising revenues net. If we're going to successfully tackle the deficit and maintain a functional system of government, we have to do both. Insofar as either candidate suggests we only have to do one of them, they are not telling us the truth.
There's your mistake right there. Unfortunately, there are too many people in the GOP who don't want a functional system of government.
