    Only Congress can write or adopt legislation. The president can only suggest, approve, or veto. If the Congress let anyone else write legislation, then they aren’t doing their job and so are still responsible for the results.

    O insisted on the secastraction and wouldn’t sign the previous bill without it. He was hoping to have his cake and eat it, too. Now he is eating crow. The worst president ever.

    That’s specifically the congress republicans. They take their marching orders from the megarich, the corporations and wall street.

    Enough. The Republicans want it all their own way, Obama is finally saying NO! America may not need another Civil War, but it is heading that way.

    NO he has it right although I do think the babe should represent all three branches of government.

    After the Republican House voted for the sequestration, Boehner said “i got 98% of what I wanted” – which includes the sequester. Stop the fiction. The Republican party wanted this.

    " If the Congress let anyone else write legislation, then they aren’t doing their job"
    Ever hear of ALEC? Where corporate interests write “model” legislation and then their legislators present said legislation often verbatim.

    No matter how often you repeat that lie, it’s still a lie.

    Did Obama do it alone? Didn’t the Republicans sign on? First they said they didn’t like it and now they embrace it. What do you make of that?
    -
    Cutting in a time of Depression fails every time. It is a time honored failure and the Republicans demand at least a 3/1 cut versus raise taxes. Another failing policy.

    @

    “it was your corrupt tea baggers that whined us into this sequestration.”


    I know you love to hammer on the tea party for everything wrong in the country, but I think you are assigning a lot more power and influence to them than is credible. For example, currently:


    Total in House 435
    Republicans 232 (includes 50 tea party reps.)
    Democrats 200
    Vacancies 3

    The Senate 100
    Democrats 53
    Republicans 45 (includes 4 tea party reps.)
    Independents 2


    Don’t you think the responsibility might be ours that we allow this partisan divide to exist? It’s convenient to blame an individual party or faction but pressure exerted by the electorate before has turned their actions, we just have to exert the pressure.
