The sequester it “the law of the land”. A couple of months ago they were telling us that when something is such it’s outrageous to even think about changing it.

Yes; only when it suits the liberals, the “law of the land” becomes like the “law of the Medes and Persians, which altereth not” . . .

Oh sure Steny, it’s all the (R)s fault. Why do these (R)s let them ALWAYS be on the offensive.

I think some Republican should report that:
“Hoyer is so eager to sell America to China on the installment plan that Hoyer will only consider an UNBALANCED budget.”
That someone should continue,
“Why are so many Democrats mentally UNBALANCED?”

That sequestration is indeed the law of the land and another screw-up invented by the Kenyan. That’s the truth, Steny, and you know it.
To: Olog-hai
Wait a minute, Steney. IIRC, the senate has had many budgets presented the last 5 years and ZERO even brought forward for consideration.
