There will be a lot of pressure on the GOP to not be obstructionist, but sequestration must happen. The tax hikes will hurt but they will be across the board and hit many of the 47 percenters. It will also trigger spending cuts, which as we all know never actually follow the compromise tax hikes as promised. Furthermore, since it can happen in the lame duck session it should have minimal effect on the next election. We need to call our congressmen and demand it happen. It’s really the only “bipartisan” solution that has anything close to a chance of creating reform.
“Obstructionist’’? Hell Yes! They ‘’won’’, remember? Stand in their way. Shove this right back at every liberal in the land. Every downturn in the market, every business closing. Make them own it and answer for it. They got their victory but make them regret every moment of it.
