GOP LAWMAKER DEFENDS GOVERNMENT SPENDING Now fights spending cuts
You may not see this one on your nightly newscast or in your local or regional newspaper, so pay attention.

GOP congressman Buck McKeon of California once attacked the Obama stimulus plan because “more (government) spending is not what California or this country needs.”

Now he loves government spending.

Two weeks ago, writing in The Wall Street Journal, McKeon — now Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee — sternly warned Americans, at least those that read the Wall Street Journal, that the defense cuts that are scheduled to take place if the federal government's “supercommittee” fails to agree on deficit spending cuts will, “eliminate jobs and raise the unemployment rate.”
