White House outlines deep cuts it may have to make

[Amelia]

So, what would you like to see happen--what could Obama do on the sequester to make you all happy? Anything?

He could STFU.

Let it happen.

America voted for this. Elections have consequences.

He is trying to flip flop ( see;Evolve) inot hawkish obama, wanting to save the military and hes using the old Jerry Brown ( or any liberal state governor who's broke) "public safety and education will suffer" threat....


obama is boxed in, but the medai will do their best to rescue him.


Oh and watch the usual suspects here at USMB play the ignorance card, those hikes in taxes were supposed to be the revenue he wanted, now he wants more and the sheep will bleat right along.

You seem to argue that he is not quite the socialist so many made him out to be. Anyone care to admit they were wrong?

...(crickets)

Strong socialist streak in theory and in past speeches but his narcissism wins out over any ideals he has avowed in the past. He thinks he's clever -- tinkering and manipulating and trapping. All that matters is that he "wins".

Well, he "won". Let the cuts happen.

Elections have consequences.

What a crock of shit you all spread. In case you missed it. The sequester legislation was passed by the House of Reps with overwhelming Rethug support. Fuk you revisionist dudes.

It'a all Obama's fault all the time with you assholes.

Don't you rethugs EVER take responsibility for your actions? EVER?

Back then, the Sequester was passed with the idea that cuts would be made before the deadline and the deeper cuts would be unnecessary.

Fast forward to today....no deals have been reached on cutting spending (thanks mostly to the Dumbos) and we are threatened with crippling cuts if nothing is done.

Do you want to know why no deals on cutting spending has taken place?

Obama and the Dems are smart enough to understand that if they propose big cuts, the UE number will rise. And the economy will slow.

The Rethugs are smart enough to undetstand that if they get the cuts they want that the UE number will rise. And the economy will slow.


So which is the bigger problem in your mind. Rising UE and a slowing economy or the debt? If the debt, what is it that you think the debt is doing to us right now?

Seems to me that the rethugs like the idea of beating up on Obama on the UE numbers and the deficit. But only one will be addressed. And I assure you that neither party is really that interested in slowing the economy and rasing UE. Fuk the debt. It is only a "problem" if it can't be used to beat Obama with it.

So Obama thought it up and the Republicans passed it. So everyone should quit whining about it. Let it happen. Why is Obama so upset about it now? He got what he wanted. The Republicans passed legislation based on one of his ideas.

Live with it.

Because he's using it to force the Republicans to raise taxes.

The nuts Obama is cutting are the bulls nuts. And the bulls told President Obama where the castrator was.

Mistake. So, raise taxes and cut nuts or don't raise taxes and cut nuts?

Which is it?

 

[Katzndogz]

It's not a matter of cuts, it's a matter of prioritization. Suppose we didn't give millions to the muslim brotherhood in Egypt. Is that something that could be cut. How about programs that study shrimp on treadmills? Can we do without those?

The government intends to waste money, and cut from what's necessary to do it.

I seem to Remember Obama sitting down at the table offering a "big deal" pre-election but Cantor (R) walked out because he thought, as did Liability, House, warbler, & others that the President wouldn't get reelected. See how that worked out? We coulda had this done pre-election but the Repubs were looking for campaign commercial fodder They additionally were forced through a referendum (the election) to raise revenue ANYWAY. See how much time Repubs wasted?

And taxes have been raised. So now it's time for the cuts Obama suggested and the Republicans agreed to.

The American people voted. Obama needs to quit whining about it.

You mean Obama might need leadership skills that extend beyond being lead by the nose by Pelosi and Ried?



Good Luck.

Maybe Bill Clinton will arrive in Mask and Cape to pull Obama's ass out of the fire like he did after the 2010 elections, but with Hillary sidelined, I woyldn't count on that either.

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

Oh well, shit happens.

 

[Samson]

Oh well, shit happens.

You won't be so flippant when you run out of gubment cheese to put on your nachos, cannot file your tax return because you cannot get IRS assistance to fill out the form, then cannot apply for a gubment loan to start your underwater solar panel assembly business.

Yeah,


Just you WAIT mister!

Prediction:

Nothing will happen and we will continue to spend even more.
