The problem is that if we can see that this is who his is, then so do our allies and our enemies, because they will not be blinded to protect 0bama's actions, like the left in the US is doing. The left refuses to see the truth, because they look thru the rose-colored lens of political partisanship.
“The sequester is not something that I’ve proposed,” 0bama said. “It is something that Congress has proposed.” [URL="http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/bob-woodward-obamas-sequester-deal-changer/2013/02/22/c0b65b5e-7ce1-11e2-9a75-dab0201670da_story.html"](Oct. 22, 2012, Presidential debate) [/URL]
And then spending months accusing the republicans of this “meat cleaver” of a sequester plan, when it was Jack Lew, the new Treasury Sec.’s idea, and Obama had him propose the sequester to the senate, and 0bama threatened to veto the budget act if Republicans tried to water down or remove the sequester plan.
Even Jay Carney admitted the sequester was Obama’s idea:
JAY CARNEY: “What I will concede is that we were looking and the Republicans were looking for a trigger around which to build a mechanism to get us out of default possibility and the sequester was one of the idea put forward, yes by the president's team.” [URL="http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2013/02/12/jay_carney_admits_sequester_was_the_presidents_ide a.html"](Special Report, February 12, 2013) [/URL]
“The sequester was something that was discussed,” Carney said. Walking back the earlier statements, he added carefully, “and as has been reported, it was an idea that the White House put forward.” [URL="http://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/bob-woodward-obamas-sequester-deal-changer/2013/02/22/c0b65b5e-7ce1-11e2-9a75-dab0201670da_story_1.html"]Link [/URL]
0BAMA IS DISHONORABLE, for breaking his agreement not to substitute tax increases for sequestration cuts.
The final deal reached between Vice President Biden and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) in 2011 included an agreement that there would be no tax increases in the sequester....So when the president asks that a substitute for the sequester include not just spending cuts but also new revenue, he is moving the goal posts. His call for a balanced approach is reasonable, and he makes a strong case that those in the top income brackets could and should pay more. But that was not the deal he made.

0BAMA IS NEGLIGENT for signing the 2011 budget act into law in the summer of 2011, and then going over a year and a half without tasking his administrative agencies to prepare for possibility that HIS sequester might be put [URL="http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/10/24/Obama-Flip-Flops-on-Debate-Statement-About-Sequester"]“in place.”[/URL] He did nothing over 18 months to find cuts in their budgets that would not cause economic disruptions, impair US safety or security, or place a burden on the citizens.
OBAMA IS IRRESPONSIBLE, because of his negligence in not preparing for the possible sequestration going in place; he has thrown his own administration into chaos. We have [URL="http://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/as-sequester-nears-immigration-detainees-are-released/2013/02/26/bc00ffba-8038-11e2-b99e-6baf4ebe42df_story.html"]ICE releasing [/URL]hundreds of criminal illegal aliens, from all over the country, without bond.
So you don't like Obama. We get it. You have never liked him? You find fault with everything that he has done. It would be easier to take your posts seriously if you were not so partisan.

Being observant of his actions is not a 'partisan' activity.

Everything i have said in the first two posts is factual, and true, you just don't like it.... too bad.
What's with all the Republican hysteria on the boards of late?
Just laying out the facts.
It's not something I'm happy to do, it's sad that our country is being used as a foil by 0bama to jab his foes, as he play politics with our lives.
