Federal Cuts Mean Oklahoma Job Losses

As it not the REPUBLIANS that wanted to cut the budget on the back of the working pple and mde a deal on these cuts of which they agreed. How soon the Republicans get seletive memory loss. Or is it oldtimers effecting their memory.

SO wht are he republicans gripng bout everyone inclding the wealhy would get h sae tax cut. Now the dod cuts come nto effect if thye do not come to an agreement before Jan i 2013 when the automatic cuts kickin on the jan 2 of 2013, Did not the hypoctites agree to that
