if somebody would mention that if the Rethugs hadn't decided to take the debt ceiling hostage, there would have been no sequester to speak of. I would also point out that if the Rethugs didn't like the sequester, they could've passed a bill w/o it, at least in the House. Hate this revisionist history-writing they are engaging in.

Sadly for him, America has already made up its mind - its always the republicans that obstruct, stall, and damage our economy and America's standing in the world.
Think again Boner - think again.
