Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA) claimed today that "over 170 million jobs" could be lost due to sequestration. When the press pointed out that the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimated that there are only 134 million workers in the United States, she immediately declared that is why she is for immigration reform. "We need a comprehensive immigration reform model so that our undocumented citizens south of the border can come in as guest voters," Waters said. "It's important that we close that gap between 134 million and the 170 million that will be lost due to the evil Rethuglikans plan to make the President follow-through on his own proposal to reduce spending." "We anticipate giving the new guest worker a green card and a pink slip through single efficient process." - See more at: thepeoplescube.com/peoples-blog/comrade-waters-declares-170-million-jobs-due-to-cuts-t10786.html#sthash.Uny22bbW.dpuf

The Sequestar crap is only $85billion which is nothing compared to our debt levels. The Feds hand over that much per month to the banks just to keep them propped up. Little do many people know how screwed up this entire system is and how much trouble it is in. They think the crash of 2008 has come and gone. Hardly.

Everything Louie has voted on I would have voted the same way (as far as I've seen anyway), so yes, I'm very proud of him.

Can we remember that next time all your trees are on fire and Perry’s whining for money from TheCommie in the White House? ;D

Foreign aid elimination would cover 1/2 of the sequestor. Add about 2 pennies on the dollar across the board to all social programs and we is done. Next step would be to cut the other 5.5% to balance the budget and a little more to start working on the debt.

BUT we are not. Obama doesn't like Texas because he knows our Gov. refuses to have a love fest in the middle of the street like he had with Christie. Man, that's about the most embarrassing thing I've seen on TV. They should have put up a XXX rating on that one. Curt

You WERE. The federal government was already paying 75% of all those fire disasters and your whiner wanted more. The same whiner that had JUST slashed the state firefighting budget. ;D ;D ;D Remember??? BURN, MOFO, BURN!!!
And your boy Goober’s voted against most every disaster relief bill that’s come down the pike, so take the 75% and . . .

This is an inclusive, equal opportunity forum.
Why should dumb-o-teabags feel left out?

Why? Don’t you think it’s better keepin’ all the idiots in one place?
They do it in congress. Or you want 535 posts?
Besides which, OP has no skin in the game. ;D

Maybe at least an admission that what she said was idiotic first, then bash the other side for their lunacy...
