The repubicans are apparently telling Obama to take a hike, this time with the sequester. He keeps pointing out how they're not doing anything and they say the same back at him.
Any company that holds government contracts is going to feel this. That includes the giant MIC companies, but it will fall even harder on the small subcontractors. The small subcontractors, many of whom, at least at the ownership level, are usually sympathetic to the repubican message will see their contracts go on hold or be cut. Like that! :snap:
Yet Boner and Chinless and that little shit from the heart of Virginia's about-to-be-devastated Tidewater area just smugly tell us how they're willing to compromise but that Obama is a meanie.
This is all about them HATING Obama and HATING anyone who isn't just like them.
Meanwhile, the chattering class keep citing poll after poll that tells us the inaction and obstruction is blamed on the repubicans and the repubicans ares elf destructing and they have a brand issue and an image issue . . . . .
Yet the repubicans keep doing it.
And that's troubling. Not so much for the havoc its causing. It is troubling because their polling is telling them this is a winning strategy. And so they keep doing it.
I think, they think Obama will be more bloodied by this.
Or maybe they're just hoping that's so.
Well see what the truth is in the 2014 results.
In the meantime . . . . . they just keep on fucking us.

(25,171 posts)Many of them have been gerrymandered into safe districts, so national polling is meaningless. As long as those living in their districts are down with this shit, I suspect the shit will continue to fly. I also suspect that many living in their districts will be eager to blame all of it on Obama.
