The Democraps show their true colors(Red) again by voting against our soldiers. Do you remember a few months ago when the old hag, Nancy Pelosi, said we've cut everything we can. Nonsense. Yesterday Dr. Senator, Tom Coburn(Oklahoma) published his 2013 list of 'Wastebook Spending'. I've included a link in the article out of Oklahoma. It took me hours to wade through the 100 items which, according to Coburn, comes to $30 billion in nonsense spending by the government.

A final effort by Senate Republicans to halt cuts to pensions of military retirees failed late Tuesday, after Democrats blocked an amendment to the controversial budget bill.
The two-year budget agreement, which cleared a key test vote earlier in the day, was expected to get a final vote no later than Wednesday.
Ahead of the final vote, Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala., tried unsuccessfully to use a parliamentary tactic to force a vote on the amendment, which he wrote to undo the cuts for military retirees.
A provision in the already House-passed bill would cut retirement benefits for military retirees by $6 billion over 10 years.
