Same here, Yoder. Although far too few and far too late.

151 Republicans voted against this abomination. Only 87 for it.

They can get rid of him with those numbers.

Thanks for the link. My guy Labrador voted Nay but my state’s other Rep voted Aye. Simpson got some ‘splainin’ to do.

Something terribly wrong here.

Jim MORON(VA) and Rosa DELORA(CT) voted WITH the R’s....must not be liberal enough?

Even though I knew this would end in failure as sequestration was a terrible idea as it meant an increase in taxes across the board, stupidly throwing the baby out with the bathwater, I still feel a sense of loss as a citizen.

BOEHNER MUST GO! IT MAY BE TOO LATE TO SAVE THIS COUNTRY BUT IF WE’RE GOING TO TRY HE HAS TO BE FIRED SINCE HE HELPED PUT OUR BACKS AGAINST THE WALL! HE’S NOT JUST INEFFECTIVE, HE’S SABOTAGING ANY EFFORT TO PRESERVE OUR REPUBLIC!

Maybe something good can come from this. Cantor, McCarthy, Hensarling, and Price all went against Boehner and voted ‘NO’.

All along the way, the Constitution has been slowly usurped. I figure the further you go hack towards the ratification of the Constitution, the freer and more alive you feel.

In the event of government collapse, going Galt may truly be possible, though dangerous. What will be left will be truly oppressive but scaled down through lack of revenue.

“I watched a Twilight Zone episode earlier tonight in which a man got tired of contemporary society and took a train back to another point in time. It was intriguing.”

“Willoughby... next stop, Willoughby...”

I wish I could go back, too.

I wish we all could go back...

Meanwhile, Pravda is running editorials that ridicule the U.S. for its socialist policies. Russia has a 13% flat tax.

When I watched the TZ episode “To Serve Man” I was struck by the introduction - but I can’t remember it now - but it was him laying in the spacecraft/slaughterhouse and reflecting on how if they had not just gone along with the Aliens in the beginning....

The aliens of course sell if as though they are helping man. Feed the hungry, bring peace. This peace causes the nations to get rid of their militaries. (So when the aliens REAL plan is found out there is no resistance).

Another part that was very timely I did find in quotes, and was the guy talking about ho “adapatable” human sensibility is. One year they are amazed at a human orbiting the earth in a tiny capsule, and the next year they are boarding large intergallactic spaceships like it is nothing but a picnic trip.

Makes me think of the freedoms that we have given up and the huge problems we face, but we take them no more than a “those were the days” and most of us carry on mostly happy and unaware.

Until it is too late.

they’ll be able to function because they’ll be able to keep what they take from you.

It appears that through lack of a small bit of courage and vigilance on the front end is going to cost us dearly on the back end. Just about anyone steeped in American culture instinctively understands the importance of freedom even if they are too selfish, shallow or cowardly to fight for it.

Now I completely understand why the Left chose Obama as freedom as a value is completely foreign to him. He can act without compunction to undo Amreican greatness. Now I completely understand why the Founders required a Natural Born Citizen as president.

It appears that Obama now wholly owns this economy - along with the so-called recovery.

He has been given all the rope he asked for...

They’ll still blame the Republicans when it crashes.

Perhaps. I think it more depends on the completenesses of the crash - and who rises from the ashes...

I can always count on my NJ congressman, Scott Garrett, to do the right thing.

In a sea of spineless, or just straight up liberal, northeastern Republicans, Garrett is a rock of conservatism.

We must run tough candidates in 2014.

WE tried. The RNC failed us...
