Looks like we will find out and I stand by my statement that the Republicans will suffer at the polls because of this. Spin it any way you want but ultimately it will be the voters who will speak the loudest
In that case we'll all suffer with the next Congress

This sequester was signed into law by the president himself, and it is not a cut. It is not swinging it any way at all when this crisis was 100% designed by the president. The president is a doosh for going around the country fear mongering the population on what the cuts will harm. What a compete fraud this all is! It is not a cut but reduction in the increase of spending. This sequester doesn't even bring down the increase if spending from 3 years ago!

His team even proposed it. ^_^

You know, that phrase is getting old. Democrats on the whole are no more or less informed. Should I start calling the Republicans the predfjudiced party since it is documented that racism has been displayed by some in your party towards Barack Obama? My guess is that you are not predjudiced but just against his policies but I could say that

If you want people to bring up actual history, sure.

It's all a big scare factor - this morning they reported that the president said a certain agency would be affected - it closed over a year ago and does not even exist. They don't know what they are talking about - just wanting to scare everyone. It is getting to the point that people just don't care - you can't believe anything anymore.

Actually, it's been that way for a while now, sadly. :wave:

Which agency is that?

Amazing that people agree with you when you have not presented any facts to investigate! That is some power when all one has to say is 'Obama bad' and people trip all over themselves in agreement.
