Sequester?

It has been a few months since I posted. I think I will start out today with what the heck this sequester everyone keeps talking about is. Well if you listen to Obama, you will think the world is ending. He says we have to cut defense spending, lay-off federal workers and release illegal immigrants from DHS custody. This is of course the Obama, White House and Democratic stance. What a bunch of baloney!!!

So, to clarify, it really is not spending cuts at all. In reality, it is reducing our rate of growth. The example I like to imagine is that you make $10 and hour. Your boss says, I am giving you a raise of $1. Now, when it comes time for you to make $11 and hour your boss says due to the economy, I cannot give you the full dollar raise. Instead, I will make your raise .97. Hmm, so now you will make 10.97 the next year. He did not actually cut anything from what you already had, he just cut a measly 2.4% from what your raise. In reality, you are still getting a raise. IN the case of the federal government, they are not cutting spending. They are just cutting 2.4% of new spending.

The liberals try to scare the American public by saying if the sequester happens, you will lose military protection, medicare benefits and probably even God if they thought you would believe it. There are no real cuts, only a slowing on future spending. The deficit is still growing at unprecedented rates. All Obama knows how to do is campaign for his agenda, scare the American people and spend money. It is time we stop letting this president get away with bullying the American People.

Washington DC is full of idiots. Fire 'em all!!!
