“Ryan countered that “elections have consequences,”

This is the new meme being bandied about in the Republican establishment.

A variation is “wait until after we get elected, then we’ll fix it”.

Yet another talking point of surrender. If elections had consequences then 1994 and 2010 were useless. Didn’t those elections have consequences?

Didn’t Reagan in 1980 and 1984 have them? Or even G.W. Bush in 2004? Not to the left. They attacked, attacked, attacked and attacked.

The wimps of the GOPe just sat around and took it because, let’s be frank (or Barney Franks), they like taking it in the rear.

And this moron Ryan is talking about “saving” 0.02125% of a yearly budget? And “long term” at that?

It’s an insult to call it Mickey Mouse or Bozo. The best description is far left liberal appeasment.

I thought that was the dems’ mantra!

And anyways wasn’t the republican house elected? And why did they feel the need to do anything about the sequester? They could have sat on their hands and we’d be way ahead.

They'll "have more flexibility" then.
