"He could’ve vetoed it from the home of an jobless worker who just saw her benefits cut."

How can one who is jobless be called a worker?

Cuts to programs used by the politically powerful will be addressed, but cuts to programs that affects the politically powerless will persist.

I guess that means that the people on food-stamps are politically powerful.

President Obama could’ve vetoed the FAA bill while standing at a Head Start that’s about to throw needy children out of the program. He could’ve vetoed it from the home of an jobless worker who just saw her benefits cut.

Why? He already won re-election. Now Obama is just about coasting the rest of the way, working via executive orders to get what he wants.

They can still blame Bush?

Democrats had other choices, of course.

Of course they did. They could have told their President to get lost when he thought up the idea of sequestration in the first place.

[griswold3]

Only a ‘Progressive’ would call a decrease in the RATE of increase a ‘cut’ in spending.
We’re so screwed.

[central_va]

The pain of sequestration will be concentrated on those who lack political power.

i.e. the taxpayer, the most politically powerless entity in the country. The forgotten man.

[Baynative]

Most of the voters and ALL of the media have no idea that the sequestration was a not a cut in the budget, but rather a reduction of the projected budget increase.

It's the republicans who lose on that count. They seem unwilling to stand up and tell the truth.

[VRW Conspirator]

The Democrats have lost on sequestration

Note to RNC: Stand your ground

[Principled]

He could’ve vetoed it from the home of an jobless worker who just saw her benefits cut.

So much to say, so little time....

an jobless?

jobless worker?

...

[PeterPrinciple]

In effect, what Democrats said Friday was that in any case where the political pain caused by sequestration becomes unbearable, they will agree to cancel that particular piece of the bill while leaving the rest of the law untouched.

not new, that was abomacare

The democrats have lost, but the rest of the article is junk. The protetariat* class that Ezra claims is being hurt by the deal, were the beneficiaries of the change. Not only that, the working class* was blaming Obama, not Congress, for the delays, and so it looks like the peasants* have figured out Obama's scorched Earth sequester strategy.

*Sorry for the commie speak, but Ezra started it.

[blueunicorn6]

If the Washington Post says the Democrats have lost, that means they actually won.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Now RUN with it you stupid RINOs!

And The Washington Post can go out of business, PLEASE!

[cripplecreek]

The worm is turning. This is the second time in a week a local liberal writer has gone conservative. The other day it was a complaint about the 90% lie and this time its a liberal complaining about spending.

“...The pain of sequestration will be concentrated on those who lack political power.”

Numurouno on the list of cuts, 100% cuts, should be ALL foreign aid, all military aid. Or does it mean that the foreigners are politically powerful...guess so, the Usurper in Chief bows down to ‘em, especially the leaders of Saudi launched and funded terrorism.

Numuroduo should be that no one illegally in this country should get any kind of aid (Food Stamps, EBIT, educational aid etc).

Numrotres should be that EPA, Homeland Security, TSA and a few other agencies should be permanently closed.

Hey, Pubbies, show us some balls!
