More Obamascare

Mon., March 4, 2013

Here we go again. The sky is falling. From Obamacare to Obamascare. With the sequester enacted, planes will fall from the sky when air controllers are fired. Police and firemen will be helpless to fight crime and fires. Teachers, nurses and Homeland Security will be devastated. Other services will also be crippled by this minuscule cut.

The sequester is for $85 billion, a drop in the bucket of an estimated $3 trillion for this year’s budget. The real disaster is the runaway spending that threatens our economy.

President Barack Obama requested the sequester and threatened to veto any attempt to nullify it. He bought it, he owns it. Another example of his flip-flop administration.

Don’t be fooled, this isn’t about cutting costs. It’s about Obama’s liberal agenda.
