Read this about Obama's "sky falling"and thought it was hilarious about the cuts:

Hail Armageddon.
But Michelle, didn't you know? Obama and Napolitano and no one else above the actual ICE knew anything about letting the illegals go. It was a lower departmental decision in advance of the massive cuts.(sarc off)
So Michelle and Talk you think (in your words "the sky is falling") is hilarious, while you two start yelling the "sky is falling". Do you two tea people ever really understand what you are posting? What's really hilarious is you two.
Mosephus, Go outside, take in a breath of fresh cold air and look to the sky .. it is STILL THERE !!!
The "sequester" will do little more than slow down the growth of government. That is why Obama now HATES the sequester, he outsmarted himself ! Obama's philosophy is to GRROOOWWWW GOVERNMENT at every opportunity ! But the government does not create tax dollars, government feeds LIKE A CANCER off of tax dollars generated from the private sector !!
Yeah, we know Obama will make the most ridiculous, asinine cuts that he can ... it is the only way he can ATTEMPT to appear credible ! He wants to RAISE TAXES for the THIRD time and he hates like hell the thought of trimming our vast, bloated, wasteful federal bureaucracy.
Taxes were raised on the wealthy through Obamacare and against EVERYONE by that laws vicious attack on medical deductions. Taxes were raised AGAIN through the "fiscal cliff deal". Now, Obama is unwilling to stick to the deal and cut expenses, he wants MORE TAXES to waste and give away !!
Obama is a financial moron !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MO(ron) - lotsanumbers
No what is hilarious is you trying to justify and embolden your existence by digging as deep as you have to into the realms of nothingness to be able to post a comment.
Do you ever really understand what you are posting? Read what you posted and interpret it for me will you? That first sentence is really obscure.
What I don't get is why the House Republicans didn't agree to tax hikes, in order to protect our national defense, then run on the promise to cut taxes, in 2014? Two years of higher taxes would have raised revenues to cut the debt, it would have protected the recovery and our military, and the Republicans would have looked liked heroes, coming in to cut taxes in an economy that could sustain less government spending.
Too sensible?
Amy, There is a fatal flaw in your "logic" .... "Two years of higher taxes would have raised revenues to cut the debt ...." contains ABSOLUTELY NO ASSURANCES the additional revenue would be used that way. Obama refuses to cut spending. The only "reduction in spending" NOW ... is a reduction of future increases !!!!
The "Raise Taxes, Spend and Redistribute" philosophy of the Democrats is merely being slowed down !
Besides, having Republicans AGREE to tax hikes only to run on "cutting taxes" two years later is terribly INCONSISTENT, and flip-flop ideas like that belong more with liberals like yourself !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So instead, the Republicans decided to risk sending us back into recession, decided to halt funds for medical research the NIH says will delay cures for diseases like Alzheimer's, and decided to risk impacting our military readiness? In order to protect tax loopholes used by the uber rich?
I'm sorry, this is why I no longer vote for Republicans, I am risk-averse and your priorities don't jibe with mine. Loopholes vs national security? Hmmm.
To paraphrase past libbie comments: You lost - get over it!
The sky is not falling; life will go on. And if it appears those huge issues Obama spoke about don't happen, all he loses is credibility, finally.
