Good Morning! Preachin' to the choir, I know, but I thought this was well-written and spot-on.

Perhaps it takes a second go-around with a maroon like this in order to get the 53% to care again and get off their sofas. The bum class did, realizing one day off a sofa meant getting to spend the next 4 years back on it at everybody else’s expense, not counting fraud. A hypothetical fair (or universally mandatory) plebiscite last November, WOULD have yielded a President Mitt Romney by this point, no wonderful shakes to be sure, but it would have been hard for Mitt to match Barack in sheer cynical game playing. What do they call this sort of stuff anyhow. Passive aggressive? Maneuvering the other guy into disaster and then pretending you can’t do a blessed thing about it?

"...Mr. 0bama has supplemented his demagoguery with a touch
of cruelty. That is, he has made it clear that he wants to inflict
as much harm as possible on Americans in order to make the
cuts live up to the hype."

It is really quite remarkable, this concoction of willful deceptions, hyperbole, demagoguery, mismanagement, and deliberate harm. And to think that a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, Barack 0bama promised to put an end to cynicism. Instead he has added massively to it. The harm he is doing to our political culture is very nearly incalculable.

It is incalculable. Thanks to our founders, we have a template to rebuild it.

--That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Simple question -

How many know that House sent the bill TWICE to Senate to avoid sequestration, only to have Reid ignore them? And how many know Boehner&Co “made a fuss” about it?

There is your problem.

This was great: Emily Holubowich–a Washington health-care lobbyist who leads a coalition of 3,000 nonprofit groups fighting the cuts–gave away the game in her comments to the Washington Post. “The good news is, the world doesn’t end March 2. The bad news is, the world doesn’t end March 2,” Ms. Holubowich said. “The worst-case scenario for us is the sequester hits and nothing bad really happens. And Republicans say: See, that wasn’t so bad” (h/t Charles Krauthammer).

Below is a personal report re the tragedy of the SBS in wino country and from gene pool contacts across the nation:

“I just woke up, Did we survive ?”

BOL! The same here. We were out carousing last night, actually going to good high school play.

This morning I noticed:

Our home was still standing and our neighbors’s homes.

Our fishwrap had been delivered apparently without the delivery lady being shot, stabbed, raped, mugged or suffering a car jacking.

Some kids were walking by to their shool, and others were being NasCared by their mothers.

Our water, sewer, electicity, natural gas, cable tv, internet and phone systems were still working.

My trophy wife and her gene pool like to talk in the early morning. She uses our landline and her cell. Everyone in her gene pool was still safe and alive. She texted our grandkids, and they were on their way to schools which where still open. Their NasCar driver, our DIL, said the traffic lights worked in traffic to and from the school. She and the kids had no problem. When, she got home her, I phone worked.

Our adult sons drove trucks or rode their bikes to their real work places with zero problems and everything is working including them and their work staff.

My wife said the local tv stations which make a cat in a tree a major story, had no disasters to show. PS: The local tv stations went to see/hear the magical Oreo. He looked hungover as he tried to blame the evil republicans for the horrible impact of the Seq bs.

Obviously the Seq bs has not really impacted us.
