Sequester Cuts

No word if crime will be part of the massive sequestration cuts coming out of Washington DC. You can't even look sideways at a television lately without the giant panic about $85 billion in cuts being the downfall of America. And even though it's an Obama proposal, passed by the dems in the House when they controlled it a few years ago, somehow, it's all the republican's fault if it all goes through tomorrow.

Here's some visual representations though:
  • The mayor said security screeners will be cut back at O’Hare and other transportation would be effected. People going shopping will feel the effects.
    “What is reliability when a mother or a father or somebody else shows up at a grocery store? We all assume food safety. Well, there is an inspector ensuring that food safety. So from O’Hare to our manufacturing in our food area, you are going to find out how important the security and safety comes from the federal government,” said Emanuel.
ICE is releasing hundreds, if not thousands, of illegals aliens detained for crimes:
  • The federal government released groups of illegal immigrants from custody across the country Monday at the same time the White House was making its case that impending budget cuts would harm efforts to protect the border and enforce federal immigration laws.

    Advocates reported “waves” of illegal immigrants being released from at least three detention centers in Texas, Florida and Louisiana.
These are people being detained for crimes, suddenly being released back into the general population. You think crime isn't going to spike a bit? The White House denies any hand in the decision and blames Homeland Security.

Bob Woodward of Watergate fame and no friend of the republicans, is saying weird stuff:
  • The Washington Post's Bob Woodward ripped into President Barack Obama on "Morning Joe" today, saying he's exhibiting a "kind of madness I haven't seen in a long time" for a decision not to deploy an aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf because of budget concerns.

    "Can you imagine Ronald Reagan sitting there and saying, 'Oh, by the way, I can't do this because of some budget document?'" Woodward said.

  • Woodward's harsh criticism came after he stirred controversy last weekend by calling out Obama for what he said was "moving the goal posts" on the sequester by requesting that revenue be part of a deal to avert it.
If you aren't wondering about all this nonsense coming to a head at the same time, you're aren't paying attention.

They are going to slow up airports, throw a food safety scare, cut back on "McKinney" funds for the homeless and really hurt some of them, let a bunch of illegals loose...but as you can see it's all a gigantic sick joke. "Fiscal Cliff" to "sequestration," can't even call it the same thing twice.

Not news: White House threatens journalist

Two things for you to know: I have been regularly threatened by the White House. That's one. Two: I am not Bob Woodward.

Woodward says that a senior administration official e-mailed me to say he'd "regret" propagating the story that the sequester was President Obama's idea and that more revenues were not part of the original plan. Woodward's contention that Obama "moved the goalposts" has suddenly catalyzed Republicans to try and blame the President for this contraption.

But both Woodward and the White House are correct. The sequester idea came from the White House

Obama Backs Off Warnings About Sequester

After weeks of outlining the dire consequences of the looming across-the-board spending cuts, President Obama tonight softened his warnings, saying the sequester is "not a cliff, but it is a tumble downward."

http://news.yahoo.com/obama-backs-off-warnings-sequester-031606410--abc-news-politics.html



Too bad his AG doesn't agree...he tacitly calls Obama a liar...


The looming budget sequestration will make Americans less safe, Eric Holder says—and anyone who says otherwise isn't telling the truth.

"This is something that is going to have an impact on the safety of this country," the U.S. attorney general told ABC's Pierre Thomas on Wednesday in a wide-ranging, exclusive interview.

"And anybody that says otherwise is either lying or saying something that runs contrary to the facts," Holder said.

I remember back in the ninties when the government was going to "shut down" because Clinton wanted more spending and the Republicans wanted to know where the money for it was coming from. The news showed idiots passing out "welfare applications" to the government workers as they left work. Clinton was so concerned about it that he was having his penis blown by an intern the whole time.

The degree to which Obama and the Democrats are squealing like stuck pigs over what is a modest decrease in the increase in federal spending and the fact that the Senate has not produced a budget in over four years shows, they are not at all serious about addressing the serious issues that face the USA.

9/11 the whole air network was shut down for what, a week? The world did not come to an end. With a quick search on the net, it appears that cost the airline industry a billion dollars with -- every -- flight grounded. And the Democrats & Obama are crying it's travel armaggedon if major airports cut back on a few flights a week???

To give people like this real power to solve real problems is just insane.

When you have Obama not letting this latest manufactured crisis go to waste by the governments releasing illegal immigrants who were in the pipeline for deportation it is another example of the party in power intentionally laying the seeds for havoc down the road.

When are people going to get fed-up with this obviously very dangerous president???

A poster on a current events web site sums up very well what Woodward is reporting:

"It is not "madness." Obama's actions do not comport with Woodward's assumptions about what Obama and his crew are up to. That does not mean Obama is mad; it means Woodward's assumptions are wrong. Remember, when the facts no longer fit the theroy, change the theroy.

Obama is in effect saying, "Unless you give me the matches I need to burn down your house, I will poision your dog." He is waving your dead cat in front of your face to drive home his point.

And it is going to get worse."

Obama, brought to America by the Illinois Combine, is clearly becomming a Blagoveich on a national level.

G-d help us.

All the armageddon talk is squarely aimed at those that aren't paying attention, which has got to be around 50-60% of the general public. The goal is to scare people into thinking that the smallest cut will mean the end of the world.

Want to save money? Start with laying off 50% of the federal workforce. Those overpaid whiny bitches can all go f themselves.

It's worth noting that the federal judiciary is not excepted from the sequester. This translates into the Northern District of Illinois closing its doors one day a week. This in turn creates havoc with respect to court dockets. Criminal cases and trials will take priority over civil (think "right to an attorney," "right to a speedy trial"). This means that all of the Section 1983 cases against POs slated for trial, or getting close to being ready for trial, will be put on the backburner until they can squeeze it in between criminal trials, if at all. Also, they wont have enough money in the budget to pay for the number of jurors usually slated for duty. So, if there is any money/jurors, it/they will go to criminal juries, not civil. Because the 1983 cases set for trial will essentially hang in limbo, the judges will almost certainly get heat from on high about clearing their dockets, which in turn means the City will be pressured by the judges to settle those cases instead of forcing them to trial, in turn costing the City untold dollars.

Already an unpleasant experience, these lawsuits will become even more daunting for POs and their families as a direct result of the sequester, as these cases (and the punitive damages that come with them) will now hang over their heads indefinitely. To say that there wont be a direct impact felt, or that the effects of the sequester are being blown out of proportion, is a foolhardy and unwise statement.

Many of the contributing factors that led to this, i.e. a diminishing middle class, an influx of cheap labor and higher taxes(and other things) led to Romes's downfall. The gist of it is that Rome just ceased to be important anymore. I think in the future that can be the United States.

Right. Anyone who is prepared for emergencies is an idiot.

Old, old, but never changes. This slur goes back decades.

I know it may be difficult to understand the concept of an empire but try. I would suggest something completely different: go to the library, obtain a library card. Then ask for help in retrieving a book. The book I would suggest is " Empire of Debt", one of the authors is a man named Bonner.

As for me being a survivalist , no. I retired from the job a while ago. Have served in the military before most of you were born. I consider myself a " true" conservative -- more of the Ron Paul type of conservative.

I just peeked out from under my bed. I'm still waiting for the sky to fall.

Gasp! That 1-1/2-2 percent budget will be devastating.

We can only hope for another one next year. Start with the legislators and their offices.

Is the Commie-In-Charge taking a pay cut? Of course not. That's for the peasants.
