Someone please tell Romney that he does NOT intend to increase defense spending $2 Trillion

because his running mate seems confused.

Romney at debate: "I'll increase defense spending by $2 Trillion"

Ryan at debate: "We don't plan to increase defense spending by $2 Trillion"

Hell, we could make this a fun drinking game. For every position and policy you heard Romney endorse at his debate, you have to drink a shot everytime Ryan disavowed that position and policy in his debate.

if i'm not mistaken didn't ryan try to say that the automatic cuts coming at the end of the year are part of the increase in military spending he and mittens plan to do.

so if president obama is re-elected and he and congress can reach an agreement so that the cuts don't happen, does that mean president obama raised military spending.

of the countless blatant lies and distortions Ryan spewed last night.

I just thought...WTF, we just saw Romney say about a dozen times that he was increasing Defense Spending and Ryan repeatedly said they "weren't" increasing Defense spending.

Also, it's about time someone points out that Bush sold his massive tax cuts by arguing that the "wealthy would pay more through closed loopholes".

Can we really be that stupid to swallow that shit again?
