The sequester cuts are going nowhere. A "blue ribbon" committee was set up in the budget/debt ceiling deal to look at the sequester cuts. Yet another "blue ribbon" committee - like the joke of a committee, the Super Committee.
Obama said on February 19, 2013 that he would VETO any attempts to change the sequester cuts. So, he himself would have to take the lead on getting rid of the sequester cuts.
And he can't blame the cuts on Congress again, either. Woodward showed in a fantastically accurate Washington Post article that Obama and Lew were the architects of the sequester cuts.
What say you?
THEY WANT THAT MONEY BACK SO BAD
Who needs people when you have the power of Satan behind you and you are a king?.../s
The sequester cuts are mainly affecting the military.
Downsizing our military and taking us out of superpower status fully comports with Obama’s raison d’etre.
As does running up humongous deficits which would prevent even a reincarnated Reagan from building it back up again.
