Now it is a bad Idea, because Obama realized the cuts will tarnish his already fading legacy! Let it happen. If Obama can't get Pelosi and Reid to make some meaningful compromise, the sequester is the Republicans' best option.

The Pentagon notified Congress on Wednesday it will be furloughing its CIVILIAN workforce of 800,000 employees if sequestration goes into effect March 1.
NOW THIS is harmful to our economy:
The unfunded liability of the federal government’s pension systems exploded in fiscal 2011 to $761.5 billion dollars — an increase of $139 billion from its fiscal 2010 deficit.
The Civil Service Retirement System once again accounted for the bulk of that unfunded liability. Its deficit grew from $634.5 billion in 2010 to $741.4 billion in 2011, according to the Office of Personnel Management’s Civil Service Retirement and Disability Fund annual report for fiscal 2012. OPM released the report at Federal Times’ request.
The Federal Employees Retirement System slipped back into the red. FERS held a projected $12.2 billion surplus at the end of fiscal 2010 — its first in four years. But one year later, FERS reported a $20.1 billion unfunded liability.

Tape Worm of Plenty,
Lets try and stay on Today's Conisms. Please address this latest revelations of mine.....
As long as you're asking your Psych to tell us what your "Honey Trap" is (Oprah Winfrey Quote), maybe you can ask her to explain why you keep Projecting about;
"Yep, you're broke and are soliciting gay sex.." (Slewsie Quote)
Broke?
Soliciting?
Gay Sex?
Well so what if I am?
(Broke) I pride myself that I can pay Little BOI's?
(Soliciting) Are their Little BOI's that I can play with cash in the places you hang out?
(Gay Sex) Do the Little BOI's that visit me know what sex is?

This is the same game that has been played for years on end by the local government entities, especially the school boards. They do not cut any of the programs, expenditures, or people that are meaningless. They say: "If those people want to play hardball, then we will play hardball. Let's see how they feel without military protection." And the government employees continue to travel first class to resorts for their "feel good" conferences, team building exercises, and diversity training. Screw them! If this is what it takes, then just do it.

That is something you know about personally. Obama's economic policies have pushed us to the brink of a deep recession. If we do not get spending under control, we will see gloom and doom as this country has never seen it before.

There are no cuts in spending. There are cuts to the rate of growth of new spending. With Sequester, the US Government will spend more in 2013 than it did in 2012. Thus, there are no cuts.
