Republican or Obama and the dems.
 
It's truly been decades of incompetence by BOTH parties.

This situation didn't happen overnight, or over the last few years.

One party, and/or one guy is not the issue.
 
The whole lot of them. We don't have to do this, its just silly that we manufacture all these crisis's.

*cringes*.... fix it, please!

And....

It's everyone's fault.
 
What, I'm the only one who voted so far?:shock:





this is a case of the republicans trying to sabatoge the economy to get Obama. They don't care who they hurt, the heartless chess masters.
 
Democrats and Obama. And I don't call it a fault, I actually give them credit.

As far as I'm concerned, this is among their bright points.

ours, because we prefer partisan teamsports over a functional government.

I voted for dems but I concur with the early posters.

It's all of them!!

I think the unemployment numbers that will be directly the fault of sequestration will be minimal, and it will - of course - be overstated by Republicans/Fox.

In addition, they're public sector bureaucratic jobs. I'm not about to shed a tear over their elimination, even a temporary elimination such as this.
 
Am I the only one who really thinks sequestration is a good thing?
 
Both of their faults. Repubs and Dems, both of em. A manufactured crisis that could easily be avoidable but instead they wanna sit around and play the blame game.

This sequestration is nothing more than a load of overblown nonsense. They are bitching about 86 billion in cuts. You do realize our government spends about 3.5-3.6 trillion a year. Those cuts amount to 2.3%. If the government only spent a hundred bucks those cuts would amount to $2.30. If anything our government should be trying to cut way more than 2.3% from what it spends.
 
YOU!! The ones who continue to vote for any candidate aligned with either of the parties. They will destroy us all for their own gain.

Don't change the way you vote, just keep blaming the ones you elect. That's rational!!

**** it, I am voting for Pedro next time.:roll:
 
I blame everyone involved. It's not a partisan thing. A compromise requires both sides to give up some of what they want, and it seems no one is willing to do that.
 
I wonder if NP knows that this is going to severly affect the Norfolk naval forces.
