Hey slewage, I got your back.

You aren't fooling ANYBODY.

You are just a tool of the extreme left, and everybody knows it.

My cars are FINE. They probably drive better, brake better, and handle better than your stupid prius.

I never had "head start", and neither did any of my siblings....
Yet, we all grew up to be law-abiding citizens, NONE of us ever got mixed up in DOPE, ended up in JAIL, had kids out of WEDLOCK, NEVER went HUNGRY, and we ALL have good jobs and still pay TAXES.
What the FOCK is a "supplemental grant"????
What you are describing is what America used to stand for. Personal responsibility and hard work.

That is not Obama's America.

The sequester is inevitable. So why is President Obama still talking about it?

Here’s the reality of the sequester: No one outside of Washington knows a) what it is and b) what it will do.

But, that will change on March 1 when the $1.2 trillion in cuts — granted, they will be spread out over the next decade but still — hit. While many of the cuts will be slow to take effect, there is expected to be a direct and quick impact on the federal workforce and the defense industry. The reverberations from those events — and the resultant news coverage — will almost certainly shine a light on just what the sequester is and what it will do if left in place for the next ten years.

The price of a gallon of gas was 1.80 when barry soetoro took office 5.00 per gallon now in California, just wait until the summer driving, it will be 7.00 per gallon.

Many Americans are also worried that the federal aid programs they rely on are on the chopping block. Next month, lawmakers will face off against the so-called "sequester," which will slash $85 billion from federal agencies over seven months.
By some estimates, up to 1 million jobs will be lost even as millions of federal workers will be furloughed and a bevy of programs and services across the government will be curtailed.
In such a scenario of widespread furloughs and job cuts, gas price will likely have a deeper impact if they continue to rise.

He is still talking about it because he doesn't want to be blamed for it. He has done nothing to stop it, so the blame of no leadership is his. Harry Reid and the senate have passed no bills to change it, so they are culpable as well. The house has passed two bills dealing with the sequester, like them or not, they have been the only actual action taken.

Since you are not talking in fake Ebonics, I am going to assume that you are not the fake black guy.

But you are wrong with what you stated above. Everyone in Washington knows what the Sequester will do. It will do damned near nothing.

Govt grows at 5% per year.
The Sequester is a mere 2.2% cut against the current budget.

Govt will still grow by 3% next year.

This is not a real cut. It is a cut in the rate of growth. The freakin' govt will still be bigger after Sequestration than before.

Daily Horoscope for May 25

Aquarius

You're very feisty and energetic and there's a lot you want to achieve. You'll get rather impatient if anyone stands in your way. A close emotional relationship will either be sexy and exciting beyond belief, or bad-tempered and tetchy. If you're in a grumpy mood, try to work out why - and what would improve matters. One thing that's bound to help is physical exercise, because it will burn off any excess nervous energy.
