Democrats want to do so with a mix of spending cuts and higher taxes. Republicans don't want to touch taxes - they want to focus entirely on cuts. But Republicans have often been hesitant to outline the cuts they want to make for fear of political blowback. On Monday on CNN, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) perfectly demonstrated this problem when Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), a self-described socialist, pressed her on whether she supports using a different cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), known as chained-CPI, for Social Security benefits. But when Sanders pressed Bachmann if she supported it, she ignored his question. So he kept asking. Seven times. Bachmann never answered. Instead, she repeatedly said that she didn't want to cut Social Security and that accusing her of wanting to do so was a lie. That's incredibly disingenuous. In 2011, Bachmann put forward a proposal to cut spending by more than $400 billion a year, including switching to chained-CPI. If she were being honest, she would have said that she does support chained-CPI and that using it would result in a cut in benefits for Social Security recipients. However, she could also say that because the government has been using an overvalued COLA adjustment for decades, Social Security benefits have actually been increasing faster than inflation.* Instead, she refused to answer Sanders' questions. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) said "this budget calls for action on Social Security by requiring both the President and Congress to put forward specific ideas and legislation to ensure the sustainable solvency of this critical program." It included nothing specific. He doesn't say anything about how he'd actually go about making those cuts.

That is by looking at the facts, applying the law to those facts, and reaching the appropriate conclusion. I don't have any basis to believe anything other than that is occurring," Holder said. "I don’t think that there is a basis for us to conclude on the information as it presently exists that there is any reason for the appointment of the independent counsel…The notion that somehow this has caused a loss of faith in this Justice Department is inconsistent with the facts."

I don’t think we should ever shut down the government.

"Innocent people think that if you just tell the truth then you've got nothing to fear from the police, if you just stick to it that the system will work, it'll all come to light, everything will be fine." Morton, then 32, was put on trial after someone killed his wife, Christine, at their home outside Austin while he was at work. Tears welled up in the prosecutor’s eyes as he told the jury that Morton bludgeoned his wife for refusing to have sex on his birthday. "There was no scientific evidence, there was no eyewitness, there was no murder weapon, there was no believable motive," Morton said. "I didn't see how any rational, thinking person would say that's enough for a guilty verdict." A few years ago, a group of attorneys working pro bono exonerated Morton of the murder by uncovering former descriptions of the killer and DNA evidence — and accused prosecutor Ken Anderson of withholding said evidence. http://ift.tt/1b9d7p0bakMUCH more.

"I've not had a chance to look at, you know, for some time, exactly what the analysis was there, so I'm not sure that I would be able to put it in what category," Holder told Lee. He believes that Obama "is probably at the height of his constitutional power" in issuing an executive order to raise the minimum wage for workers who do business with the federal government, though, and concluded that the same is true for the employer mandate delay. "I would think that given that we're talking about a statute passed by Congress that delegates or devolves to the executive branch certain authorities, I would think that you're probably in category one there as well," Holder said of the delayed employer mandate, which the text of Obamacare says should have taken effect Jan. 1, 2014.
