Rob Rogers for February 21, 2013

10-4

Did Robby’s 5 year old son draw this?I see why he works for “The Pittsburg Post-Gazette”, whatever the hell that is.

IT’S LESS THAN A 9% DECREASE IN GOVERNMENT SPENDING! YOU’LL SURVIVE, DC.

Welcome to the other 90% of the country that doesn’t have a cushy government job. While you all might not have gotten as big of a raise lately because of the recession, the rest of the country has seen their hours cut, pay reduced and even lost their jobs the past 4 years. Get over it.

Another example of when “you have such a stunningly superficial knowledge of what went on that it’s almost embarrassing to listen to you.”Sequestration is a shot gun blast that will ‘kill’ some waste/fraud/overspending, but it will also kill programs that have great value to our nation and our people.Sequestration is an example of political cowardice…rather than facing constituents with solutions built on bipartisan compromise. This enables both parties to ‘break promises’ to donors while asking for money to fight against the “bad guys” from across the aisle who are ‘really made this happen."It is also laziness. Tearing down the house and building a new one costs more than remodeling and rehabilitating the house and is much more work, but then the people who do the rebuilding can say, “Look what we did!!” The fact that the new construct is made of shoddy materials and poor workmanship is masked by cosmetics.It’s hard to get over it when I see D&R politicians getting over their voters.Respectfully,C.

Yet, strangely the Republicans are the ones passing the budgets and the democrats are the ones blocking it. So I see your knowledge is as lacking as the catoonist’s.

ZING!Republicans hate government and want to destroy government.Except the part that tells you who to marry, what women should do with their bodies, and what countries to invade.

sorry it is obama and his group fighting for more free trade agreements . and it the tree huggers that are stoping us from building more and safer refinery that are keeping th price of gas up

My fave Rogers toon of 2013 so far: relevant, funny and hit’s the nail on the head with a sledgehammer.

should read – “isn’t their president doing it already”. This is his mess – He chooses the blame game and takes no credit.. what a great leader we have….

yet another bingo.

I read an interesting article that says by doing a brain scan these scientists can tell whether a person is a Democrat or Republican with 82% accuracy.http://www.livescience.com/27213-brain-scans-predict-political-party.html

Here’s the problem: no matter what we cut, people will lose jobs. As has been rightly pointed out, many of those jobs should not have been created, such as those for duplicate government programs or for programs that are in place that have no benefits except to make work.

In an economy that has been rigged to reduce demand for job growth, it will be political suicide to lose more jobs. So, the best answer: do nothing, and blame the other side.

Obviously, practice makes perfect.

100%. The real enemies are sitting in congress right now. Our foreign enemies only need to wait things out. This is how nations collapse. The republican way.

And… ZING.

I can’t believe this clown has been representing Pittsburgh’s values all these years that he has been slinging his hash.

thhe Gop has done that. It has done that ever since Mitch McConnell said "making Obama a one term president is our first priority.from then on bi-partisanship was history. They have obstructed even their own bills to play politics.

gripeing here dosnt do any good jump on your congressman until they feel the heat they will ignore you

BTW: note he doesn’t mention sequestration as the cause, let alone the sole cause of the problem with them.
