Could you believe how fast Republicans move when rich say "Hop to it"?

[depotoo]

There is no way that a budget cut of 2% to the proposed increase in spending could cause any
actual cuts in services...

Obama got caught in his BS.

Heck, they have a budget of almost $16 billion!

And, I do know that many flights are not even there anymore with mergers, etc. by airlines over the last few years yet they had requested a 17% increase! And -

Nearly 71 percent of the total requested amount for Operations is used to pay for the salaries and benefits of most FAA employees, including safety inspectors and air traffic controllers.

which amounts to $9.8 billion of their total budget.

I have also learned they spend over $500 million a year just for consultants.

And they have a huge amount of new hires in training for becoming controllers as they plan on hiring a total of 11,000 new controllers by 2020 to replace retiring controllers.
In 2011 alone 25% of their workforce was controllers in training. Why were these individuals not furloughed first?

Does the radical left think only "the rich" fly? Actually "the rich" probably have ways to dodge HLS harassment. Ordinary people complained about flight delays caused by Obama's plan to punish Americans and congressional republicans responded.

 

[rdean]

since when did only "the rich" fly on commercial airplanes? Most of "the rich" have their own planes.

the OP is a false premise.

And their own "Air Traffic Controllers"?

House passes bill to end FAA furloughs, now goes to Obama to sign | Fox News

The FAA reported more than 1,200 delays due to the sequester-tied cuts on Monday. On Tuesday, the agency reported "challenges" at airports in New York, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and the Dallas-Fort Worth area. On Wednesday, the FAA said there had been close to 900 flights delayed “attributable to staffing reductions resulting from the furlough.”

------------------------------------------------------

How sad. Board Directors and CEO's who don't have a "private plane" could be inconvenienced with (gasp) planes that have been rescheduled.

You know the complaints that made the Republicans "hop to it" are NOT coming from Coach.

The poor and the middle class may be suffering all across the country. But Republicans, in their typical "fuck 'em" way, don't seem to notice. Don't USMB Republicans call the poor "the lazy poor"? I seem to remember seeing that somewhere.

But when the wealthy tell the Republicans to "fix it", they are like the Keystone Cops" falling all over themselves to please their masters.

Being so blind to non partisanship means Republicans will pay in the future as their numbers decline.

It was just a few weeks ago this is what Republicans were saying.

Economic Armageddon? Republicans call sequester warnings hype | Fox News

Now they are rushing to fix a mess Boehner made a slide show of to convince Republicans to support.

Whose idea was the sequester? And does it matter? (+video) - CSMonitor.com

Exhibit B is a July 31, 2011, PowerPoint presentation found by John Avlon of The Daily Beast in an old e-mail, reported on Wednesday. The slideshow was put together by House Speaker John Boehner’s office and the GOP’s House-based think tank, the Republican Policy Committee, and describes a “new sequestration process” that would cut spending across the board if the cuts weren’t made by other means.

LOL, what we can't believe is how fast you liberals will run to vote for the rich in Congress..Seven of the top ten richest congress critters? DEMOCRATS
Then have the nerve to accuse Republicans of jumping when the rich speak..

you people are such a joke

There is a difference between being rich and being owned by the rich. Try to figure out the difference.

So stop training those being trained to replace those that retire?

Sounds kind of short sighted, doncha think?

But he has a valid point. unlike field trips to the White House for school kids, shutting down the private airfields made Rich people have to wait like the rest of us schlubs.


And that ended faster than you could say, "Don't you know who I am?"

Don't get me started on billionaires and Republicans.

Dumb ass right wingers scream "Democrats have billionaires too". But what it is those billionaires are trying to do? Change laws so we can have bigger nuclear waste dumps? Rewrite environmental laws. Dump toxic waste. Deregulate banks.

You don't go to Democrats for those things. You go to Republicans. Come on. Even you have to admit it. Right? Come on. Admit it asswipe. Finally be honest for once.

are you saying the democrats in Congress are rich,but not owned by the richer?....if you believe that Dean then they have done their job with you.....

 

[Darkwind]

In fact, the GOP can be considered the heroes in this entire debacle.

Everyone knows that Obama is intentionally targeting ONLY those services that will cause huge public pain just so he can spend more money.

The GOP is highlighting this fact and showing the people that there are better ways to cut government while NOT playing politics with peoples lives.

Dean has a lot of valid points Joe.....its his "i hate Republicans" Monolog that comes after that decides how his threads end up.....and 90% of them go south....it gets old.....but it is fun watching him act like he doesn't understand WHY.....when he does...

i don't trust any billionaires Dean.....do you think they actually give a shit about the regular people?....the lefties here talk about how bad Koch is.....look at all the fucking money he donates to charities,Medical Research and Science and Technology......i showed his lineup to Chris after he got through saying what a fucker he is.....then it was....."well he is a bad guy when he is not doing that stuff"..... yea just like the other billionaires....

Pfffft! Where can I sign up to be owned by the rich? I would love to be owned by the rich! So far, I'm just apparently owned by a poverty stricken incompetent and corrupt government who want's me to pay for their idiocy. Save me rich people! I do windows!!!

Republicans are controlled by the rich.

Is that why the Democrats wanted to end the Bush tax cuts for the rich and now want to take away the loopholes, but Republicans won't agree to it? Gotcha!
