I guess your standard news corps isn't showing the footage of all the republicans saying they like that the sequester has gone through. Thus, the republicans are happy about it. Blame them if you want to blame. I can't wait until 2014, to see how things go down. :biggrin:

Wow. Getting a liberal democrat or a liberal democratic supporter to take ownership of a particular idea is next to impossible. When did I ever give the impression I was displeased with the sequester? I do think it's inevitable implementation was due to the naivety and simple mindedness of legislators like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and their daddy, Barack Obama. It reminds me of the story about a couple of moonshiners who lacked the nerve to drink some of their own brew. To get past the problem, one of them pulled out a gun and ordered the other to take a big swig. He then handed the gun to his buddy and said, "here, now you hold the gun on me while I take a drink."

My problem is that where you have dealings with this administration, you will have the shenanigans that go along with it. Fast and Furious investigators got stone walled. Benghazi investigators got stone walled. EPA investigators got stone walled. Harry Reid got up on the floor of the US Senate and flat out lied about Mitt Romney, in election terms, mere minutes before the actual voting started, thereby denying time for Romney to respond. Reid issued the incredibly shameless slander in a statement before the Senate that Romney hadn't paid any income taxes for 10 years. (there are presently 105 thousand legislators and government employees who don't pay their taxes he could have gone after including Eric Holder and Timothy Geithner) Now as I have called out in the post you quoted, we see the White House and accomplices like Reid making all manner of false statements such as the one in which Reid blamed the deaths of 7 marines on the lack of federal funds to adequately train our military due to the sequester. Along with actions such as the coordinated furloughs of 60,000 border agents and the release of over 2,000 criminals who are in this country illegally in the first place.

IMO, one would have to have the mind of a mushroom to believe the machinations and blather emanating out of this white house is beyond their control. The sequester deadline was March 1st. We're supposed to believe between March 1st and March 19th training fell off the chart? Your reluctance to see or admit the obvious makes you look like the Alan Colmes of Johnson County.

I too look forward to 2014. I'm anxious to see if any democrat supporters wake up or not.
