Sequester? > General Discussion

Given that the sequester was passed into law almost a year ago, complete with a signature from Obama, why was he making a big deal about signing an executive order Friday night to start the sequester?

THIS...is what I keep saying.

It's what they all signed up for if the Super Committee couldn't come up with a better plan...and, since there were equal #s of Rs & Ds on the committee, we all knew it was doomed to fail from the start.

A year ago he was in full campaign mode, the media took it off their radar.

You can't lose the game if you change the rules at halftime.

Obama's a damn drama queen, that's why he's making a big deal. If you ask me the govt needed some serious spending cuts anyways. The only way they were ever gonna make them was if they were forced to. Maybe these asshats should just go a year or two without pay.
