Obama won again. Just on the other side.
He wanted higher taxes and the Congress would not give it to him so he took the low road and went with the sequester. Then he can lay off more people and force them unto the Welfare rolls.
He thought he could kill 2 birds with one stone. Getting people laid off and on to welfare and take more money from the rich.
Seems he is only going to get the increase in welfare rolls and food stamps ..
He'll have to try again to get his spending money off the rich.

A 2011 GAO report gave a sampling of the vastness of what could be cut, consolidated and rationalized in Washington: 44 overlapping job training programs, 18 for nutrition assistance, 82 (!) on teacher quality, 56 dealing with financial literacy, more than 20 for homelessness, etc. Total annual cost: $100 billion-$200 billion, about two to five times the entire domestic sequester.
Seems Obamas road trips are much to important to let running the country take priority.
How about Obamabats Why doesn't he cut this stuff up and do away with it? He wants to be top dog but he just doesn't want to be the guy cutting payments to anyone. Hes all show and no go. Big mouth but no Guts!
Now we sit back and watch the sky fall right? Obama can claim that its all the Republicans fault and any $$$ we might save from this sequester Obama will use to fund another golfing trip.
Glad he has his signature on it twice now!

So today Obama is going to meet with the folks for a photo op!
To show you how much this guy likes himself Since April 2004 Barack and Michelle Obama have made a combined 195 television and movie appearances since entering the national spotlight in 2004, according to the Internet Movie Database . That is 20 more appearances than the Reagans’ 175 self-credited media appearances over an 85-year span.
And that time frame was just up to April 2012 Look at all the added time during the election process.
I guess Obama is gearing up for his own TV show. What a hack. Arrogant and many words I cannot even use to describe this dunce.
The guy didnt even have the brains to try to solve the sequester. Instead he goes "on Tour" like the rock stars to get someone one to clap for him and put him on television.

Hannity has invited Obama on several times but Obama doesn't have the guts to appear so it appears Obama sent his Muslim buddy to defend him.
We all know Obama has no guts to show up on a Fox interview. He only like The View where he can be surrounded by those in charge.

Apparently the dumbwing has forgot we had a 9/11.. They don't want to be reminded of all the people who died because of Clinton.
Obama has milked the Sandy shooting for all its worth. 23 people died needlessly but 3500 dies in 9/11 and mark highwater wants forget the cost and cause of that needless killing.
Bush will find a higher spot in the history of this country then Obama. The historians will write about Obama and his failures to do ANYTHING and his failures to be able to lead. A good leader finds harmony amongst his charges.. Obama cannot work with anyone. He likes himself to much to bend for anyone. History will show him for the loser he really is and the losers his followers have become.

The National Debt has now increased more during President Obama's three years and two months in office than it did during 8 years of the George W. Bush presidency.
The Debt rose $4.899 trillion during the two terms of the Bush presidency. It has now gone up $4.939 trillion since President Obama took office.
The latest posting from the Bureau of Public Debt at the Treasury Department shows the National Debt now stands at $15.566 trillion. It was $10.626 trillion on President Bush's last day in office, which coincided with President Obama's first day.
The National Debt also now exceeds 100% of the nation's Gross Domestic Product, the total value of goods and services.
Would You Believe It's Barack Obama?
Wow is this guy good or what? And thats from a year ago. Its higher today and rising everyday just like the stock market and all the rich and famous incomes.
