He wins, we win, you lose.

You should be getting used to this by now.

Ohhhh is that how it goes? He wins therefore we are supposed to win.... Hmmm. Well let me know when the we "winning" part starts. Because we havent been winning since he took office.

You are nothing but a delusional, willfully ignorant liberal. I shouldve expected such a meaningless response from you.

This is how it is, yes. Your paraphrase, however, is incomprehensible.

I imagine that derives from your impotence and frustration, so at some level it's understandable. But we elected this president to accomplish certain specific things, and he is accomplishing them. So like I said, you should be getting used to this by now.

Well Tilt11'

anyone with any smarts in their head, knows that the day this Presdient took his first step in the Oval Office, was the day that America lost.

But you see not all americans, because those who Obama needs little favors from, he gives special prefential treatment too, And we all know it.

Being a pompas arrogant a-- and a bullish temperment someone who has got to have his way, whether right or wrong for the people, means we don't win, we just have a child as a President, who loves playing games and has to win at all cost.

Out of curiosity, what exactly is he accomplishing?

Ultimately? Protecting the recovery from a Republican induced second recession.

If the Republicans are going to want their defense budget restored, there will need to be some additional concessions on revenue. And the American public is overwhelmingly on his side to that end.

This man, this pathetic little man should be ashamed of himself.
What you are asking him to do is, of course, unconstitutional. The president can make recommendations, but actual appropriations bills must begin in the House of Representatives.

In any event, we all know that the sequestration was created only because the GOP house insisted on it, and a deficit commission, in order to increase the debt ceiling, which was needed in order to keep the economy going. Since the deficit commission failed to make any recommendations, the sequestration was not changed, except to push it back for a few months last year. This, any bill to change the blind cuts to spending, must begin with House Speaker Boehner.

The guy is so worthless it defies description and imagination.

It will be so nice when the blabbering, slobbering media wakes up. We all know dems/libs can't think for themselves, and if the media ever turns, maybe some sense will get knocked into some empty heads.

It's obvious that he's trying to replace Don Rickles as the king of the insults; it was wonderful watching Bob Woodward demolish him as having 'a kind of madness' throughout this entire sequester episode this morning on MSNBC's 'Morning Joe'.

His assertion that government would have to get used to functioning on over 97% of its current funding level is also absurd as George Will wrote in today's Orange County Register and elsewhere.

Will also pointed out the budgets of all of the Federal departments have risen by over 17% since Obama was sworn in, consequently making Obama's 'Chicken Little' whining about the devastation which a 5% cut in their operating expenses/revenue would inflict on them downright absurd.

The sequester was supposed to force a compromise deal, but a deal wasn't reached. Watching republicans play the blame game instead of compromising shows they are the ones interested in politics.

Whatever the the GOP accuses Obama of doing, theyre doing. It's all projection.
