You people on here that support this anger me to no end. There are many good people, like myself, who will be hurt, and hurt badly, because of this.

Sure, there are folks who make enough money to be able to tighten up a bit, but when folks like me, WHO BARELY NET $22,000 A YEAR, have to take a pay cut because of Obama's war on the military see you cheering this, it makes me wonder why I even patronize this website. I'm going to lose over $4,000, and you're happy?

Go ahead, flame away, but I'm letting you know that this sequestration will hurt many people and all I see you doing is cheering Obama on.

Sickening, absolutely sickening................

I am so sorry ducttape. I will pray for you.

It is sickening. As I said a few days ago before FreeRepublic went down: I remember when this used to be a pro-military Conservative website.

The temperature of the nation right now is somewhere between panic, angst, uncertainty, anger, and depression.

All hail our leaders.

Obama is what he is: a homosexual with "daddy issues" who diddled Reggie Love last weekend, the press knew it, and no one cares.

The Republicans are just now starting to figure out that they lost last November, they don't control the Senate, they don't control the White House, they don't control a single Executive branch agency, and that Judas Robers sit atop the Supreme Court.

Guy like you, who work hard to earn what they have, are caught in the middle. The left hates you because you are not taking your SNAP card, ripping off American by claiming you should be getting Social Security Disability, and not taking your unemployment "benefits" for 99 weeks (which were extended again during the last "Fiscal Cliff" negotiations to the tune of about $35 Billion).

Money for that, yesiree.

Hand over fist.

Not for you, though.

I love Rush Limbaugh. I really do. The man is brilliant, and he has brought more insight into the actual workings of politics to Joe Everyman than this nation ever had before.

But on this issue, he is wrong. Dead wrong.

He is reading the talking points of Ryan and Cantor, and they will take the Republican party straight into the pit. The cuts are insignificant when compared to the entire fiscal outlays. The are not insignificant to DoD, that has to take a 30-40% Operations and Maintenance cut in just 6 months to absorb the costs. Not to mention this entire fiasco also ignores the fact that Entitlements (which are breaking the back of this nation) are exempt, and the military and working people are going to suffer the most from these cut taking place in the MIDDLE OF A FISCAL YEAR WHEN ALL AGENCIES WERE TOLD NOT TO EVEN PLAN FOR THEM BY BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES.

The Republicans will lose the House of Representatives in 2014 over the way they handled the Sequester issue.

Mark my words.

“You people on here that support this anger me to no end.”

Some people prefer to call us “Taxpayers”, but don’t worry, we don’t get much respect these days. Only our heroic public sector deserves that.

I support any cuts to government, where ever they occur. Life is tough, and if $22k after taxes isn’t enough for you, come on out in the rough-and-tumble of the private sector. You may make more, you may make less, but please...stop whining!

You are excoriating (that means berating, for you entitlement-minded public sector folks) the very people who pay for it all - and have EVERY RIGHT TO DEMAND CUTS - including cuts to YOUR PAY.

Do you understand that? Whether you like it or not, there are more cuts coming. We simply do not have the money.

So, to save America, we have to fire people like you, and lots more people that “NET” more than you, and some less than you.

It’s the only way....the ONLY way to save America.

Do you want some help working on a private-sector resume? I’ll give you assistance out of the goodness of my heart, but you’ll have to promise not to keep trying to take my money.
