Man, how can you say that? Are you not bothered that Obama stands in front of the American people and, with a straight face, declares that he doesn't have anything to do with it. That is a BALD FACED LIE!
Maybe you don't mind being played for a fool, but it pi$$e$ me off big time. Besides being lied to, I'm being used by him as a chip in a game of political poker. Again, he had the opportunity to grant authority for DoD to cut in places where folks wouldn't be hurt. That's a damn big deal to me.

We're seeing contractors up for audits having contracts cancelled after being let and even recinded after work starts every day. Folks can whistle past the graveyard all day long and talk about how much better things are getting, but I'm here to tell you it's tough out there.Screw it. Let's ride.

[font=comic sans ms][size=12pt]Even the biased news media has reported that Osama could have stepped in and stopped it. I guess when it comes to NOT being responsible for anything, he is a perfectionist.

This is my opinion and not necessarily the opinion to the forum.

I hope he never accepts responsibility for something that goes wrong. If he does, I'll fall over dead from a heart attack.

LOL
yep. you, me and about 47% of the rest of the country who did 'not drink the kool-aid'
FWIW I may loose the job I FINALLY got after the Obama (s)Care fiasco last year made potential employers too anal to hire.
I wonder what the next 'crisis de jour' will be after this one runs its course?(RETIRED) mostly.

Dang, I hope not. I know where you're coming from. Took me 18 months to find a job that caused me to take a 65% pay cut and move 400 miles - leaving my family behind for the next year or so. And NOW I get a 20% haircut for 5 straights months. The kool aid drinkers will pardon me if I direct my ire at the Whiner in Chief.Screw it. Let's ride.

Keep reminding ourselves, there are no Patriots standing tall in D. C. There are more people and more power in Congress, than one Administration has. Just thinking.

Re: Sequestration hits home
he is doing the exact opposite what he was elected to do.....(right by the people)....not to make them suffer as much as possible for political gain....this is an impeachable offense....and what is being covered up in Benghazi is treason if and when the truth ever comes out....dead men tell NO tails...... and they are dead.....won't even let anyone know who did survive....changed there names and most likely will come up missing on some exotic island living the life of luxury....or be dead,...... like he wants to happen to the none Odumba believers...... that didn't drink the kool-aid
why do they need 1.6 billion rounds of HP ammo,7000full auto weapons,1700 assault vehicles....and drones flying over head....not to mention so much more for homeland security,fema.& irs......If they don't plan on using them.....then why buy and have them.......the LIAR and Chief wants to be king....Bill..............

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
