Cut Social Security & Veterans' Benefits? Cut the Pentagon Instead!

The Congressional Budget Office says cutting Social Security and veterans' benefits in this way would save the government $163 billion over ten years. But there are much better ways for the government to save $163 billion. Email President Obama and Congress >Defend Obama From AIPAC
