BLOG: The Sky Is Falling

When will Americans ever learn? Do we always have to believe that what our politicians tell us is true. Ye Gods!

The latest attack on our senses is the news about sequestration. You'd think it was castration we were all facing (men only I would hope).

I want you to imagine for a second that your boss just told you that you were not going to get as large a raise as he told you you were going to get few months ago. What would you do?

Let's take a worse case. Let's say that your boss came to you and said, "We're running out of money. I can't charge our clients any more so we are going to have to reduce our expenses by 2 percent." Could you do it? What expenditures would you reduce. Remember it is only 2 percent.

Would you throw away your car or TV? Maybe you would leave your house and never return? I know, you'd stop eating or just plain kill yourself.

Me, I might not eat out as often or not go to a movie as frequently. To hear BHO and his cohorts, the 2 percent reduction in the planned increase is going to ground all planes, eliminate education for our young, curtail police and fire and dismantle our military.

Come on! Give me a break. How about you and Mabell Michelle quit taking separate vacations? How about practise chipping on the green at the White House? Have Tiger come to you. Reduce the white house staff's hours by 2 percent.

There are billions with a B as in BHO that can easily be reduced without throwing the country off a cliff, unless perhaps that's what you had in mind when you BHO campaigned for sequestration last year. Try not to fall for this BS from BHO. Shame on us!
