Our local propaganda outlet had a story this morning about the effect of these cuts. Less funding for Head Start? Good. The program is worthless anyway. Fewer TSA and air traffic controllers? In my neck of the woods, no one can afford to travel. Less funding for “education?” A joke since 75% of students here taking the SATs last year failed and we have among the highest dropout rates in the country, despite billions of dollars already spent on “education.” Huge percentage if furloughed government employees? I bet if we lost 90% of those employees, no one would notice.

So far, I don’t see a downside to sequestration, at least not here.

Personally, if these measly “cuts” result in all this reduction in government, I say bring it on

You can’t really take ANY of these clowns seriously.
All we have heard the last 2 wks is all the dire ‘things’ that are going to happen.
Of course EVERYONE was on ‘vacation or break’ from the rigors of the inauguration/lame duck session/break, the absolutely terrifying ordeal of the ‘Pre/Post Christmas Break’, the strenuous ‘Pre/Post Thanksgiving Break’ which followed the arduous and draining ‘Reelection Break’ which came after the ‘Fall/Labor Day Break’ which was close on the heels of the ‘Summer Vacation Break’.

I certainly hope “Chicken Little and Friends” are getting ‘Frequent Flier’ miles.

I would venture to guess that nary a ‘Czar’ has been let go, and the ‘last check’ written by the Treasury etc will go to ‘OUR LEADERS’.

The only ones that haven’t really taken a break are obozo and ‘the press’.

obozo is taking his ‘world retirement’ tour right after securing another 4 yrs, the press is lapping it up after him and “WE” are basically like a dog chasing his tail - with more and more ‘revelations’ as to the character etc of the idjits that are leading us....
NOVEMBER 6 was the day for THAT TEST - not p’in and moaning about it 4 mos later with 44 months staring us in the face. The way things are going we are going to lose the House in 2014, so all that is needed is an ‘accident’ involving a SCJ or 2 and we are going to be in deep kimchi.... well deeper.
You can almost ‘bet’ that any ‘New Supreme’ will be near the minimum age and so far left he/she will almost be ‘right’. Or some ‘true’ patriots along the lines of Clinton(s) or Gore (Too old, BUT very scary).
Naturally in 2016 (if it should matter) Moochelle and Jill will be offered to ‘continue’ the job of the total dismantling of the Country. The ‘R’s will counter with either another Bush or some Very Left Leaning Candidate.

Solution? Admittedly I have none BUT for starters
We ‘ground’ AF 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 - Marine 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 etc.
With todays Communication ‘Miracle’ ANY of our leaders can reach out to the citizenry via “Closed Circuit” and not bring all the drama of Road Blocks, Security, and General Frustration to the area where ‘they’ are trying to pull more wool over our eyes’.
Hell, he could pull an FDR and bring back the ‘Fireside Chats’ and commandeer ALL the TV and Radio Outlets OR TWITTER or TWEETER or whatever it is called - it would be cheaper than keeping AF1 idling at Andrews.
The ‘real gutty’ Reps/Sens refuse their ‘check’ (sure it is grandstanding and they will get it eventually)
