OOB... OUT OF BOUNDS

TOUCHING ENTITLEMENTS IS OUT OF BOUNDS (OOB)

QUESTION?

WOULD YOU SUPPORT CUTTING SOCIAL ENTITLEMENTS?

THESE PEOPLE HAVE NO RIGHTS TO TOUCH ENTITLEMENTS TO FIX (OTHER) PROBLEMS.
PEOPLE PAID ALL THEIR LIVES TO GET THEM.

FOR THEM TO THINK THAT THEY CAN USE THIS TO FIX THE DEBT OR ANY OTHER UNRELATED MESS IS RIDICULOUS.

THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY MILITARY CRAP.
THAT IS WHERE THE CUTS SHOULD COME FROM TO FIX RELATED PROBLEMS.

GOOD SUBJECT FOR A POLL!!!

SHOULD THE CONGRESS HAVE THE ABILITY TO CUT ENTITLEMENTS TO
FIX DEBT ISSUES RELATED TO MILITARY SPENDING.

US voters are finally beginning to wake up and starting to think about the next election and how to exercise their individual right to hold public servants accountable.

What is your personal opinion on who is responsible for the partial government shutdown? While the public esteem sinks for everyone of the players in this growing impasse, which includes President Obama and the Congressional gang of political malcontents.

This situation has unfortunately turned into a serious conflict, with no heroes and there's plenty of disdain to go around. What is your opinion?
