Sequestration?

What do you think will happen? Solve last minute? Let it happen? Let it happen but work out a compromise in a month or two. Paul Ryan was pointing out today the discretionary spending has increased by 18% since Obama was elect

I think that Obama has a split personality. The sequestration was his idea and proposal. He threatened to veto any bill which would eliminate it and now he is talking as if it is the greatest evil to come along since tooth decay. And he wants to blame the Republicans.

Elected. So an 8% cut would still have them ahead. He suggested letting the bureaus make their own decisions about what programs to cut. Makes sense to me. Prioratize spending instead of letting Congress decide. Same with the military.

I think the Republicans are finally figuring out that trying to hang it around the president's neck when 174 of the teabaggers voted for it...(by 2-to-1), and after Boehner is on TV saying, "I got 98% of what I wanted...I'm happy!", the public are figuring out that besides being liars, the Republicans are going to be responsible for every job lost; every employee furloughed, every cut in services; and every long-term unemployed person losing their life-line; and every person whose mortgage goes into default... The public is finally getting wise to how stupid they are.

God, I hope these lunatics jus' keep doin' what they're doin'... Hopping from one unnecessary, manufactured crisis to the next shows that they are not only not ready to "lead"...they're not ready to pick up the trash.

It was Obama's idea and he said it would never happen... and how much actual work has he done to find a solution? Nothing.

So what happened? Did Barry simply "evolve" on the issue? Did he get some coaching from Old Swift Johny about being for something before being against it? Is Barry's ego so big that he figured he could hold the nation hostage and force the results he wanted or is the complete ruin of the US economy what he actually wants?

I guess we will know more in about 8 days. I think Barry wants sequestration to happen despite his public efforts to back peddle and deflect the blame on to the GOP. Unless I have missed my guess, all of Barry's current statements about sequestration being bad are simply damage control prior to the train wreck.

Don't worry the press will lie for Barack and ignore his approval of sequestration. NBC news just hired Axelrod. Did they get tired of having to call him to know what stories tovrin that week? Now they can just refer to the white board in his office at NBC. 1) No Benghazi stories.

It's okay... They have "9-9-9" Cain; Scott "Loser" Brown; and Kucinich over at FauxNews...They'll know which stories to run... And besides, Boehner is feeding talking-points to Hannity so he doesn't have to mess himself during the commercials trying to figure out the next totally insane thing to say...

All is well in the "Land of the 46% who Distrust FauxNews to tell the truth about ANYTHING"...

Too bad that Boehner's July, 2011, PowerPoint slide presentation "extolling the virtues of a 'sequester'" has been published all over the place. If it weren't for that, he might still be able to convince a few teabaggers that it was all "Obama's idea"... Oh, wait.... :rofllol

Perhaps that's why Obama just hit a 3-year high in the "performance" polls (55% and climbing)... while the GO-Teabagger-Party continues to slide into the 30's... Dang...It sux to be you...

Did you guys get the memo?... YOU LOST....
