With trusty Zippo lighters in hand, the GOPers are ready to see the country burn down in order to save tax cuts for the very rich.
Tax cuts that no one, outside of the Republicans, their corporate sponsors and much of the ultra rich elite.
Suffering across the board in order to satisfy their intransigence against the Black Guy in "their" White House and utter contempt for everyone else.
However, this scheme of theirs is going to backfire as they're ignoring all of the data which indicates that the blame for the sequester occurring will fall on the helmet-haired heads of Republicans.
Suffering and regression is the hallmark of the modern Republican Party, replete with self-inflicted wounds, stupidity and wide spread agony. No matter, they'll be sure to blame The Other Guy, in spite of the fact that everyone can plainly see who's responsible.
Republicans: Until we can get these fools under control, or they damage their own political leverage beyond repair and lose want advantage that they have, we should expect more of these debacles.
Burn, baby. Burn.

(14,120 posts)They will not. Either way it goes it will be bad for us. Why? The Republicans want to punish the U.S. citizens for voting President Obama in again.
It would help a lot if we would put that determination we had to put Obama in to help him. We need to go out and get the other citizens that lean right to see what is going on and get them to see that they are going to hurt along with the rest of us due to what the Republican legislators are doing. Get groups up, write the legislators and let our thoughts known, stop complaining and work together.
After this fight, we still have the debt ceiling for the right to find a way to punish us with. President Obama is at this point fighting this by himself. Why not help him instead of criticizing him.

(14,120 posts)Why? We elected President Obama again. They are sure they have there Conservative backers brainwashed enough to keep their sits. They will push us over the edge and then use whatever stupid idea they have to try and be "Savors of the Nation".
They consider it a win-win. Us punished and them hero's.
The question for us is "Are we going to let them get away with it"?
