50 STOCKS that hedge funds are shorting like crazy

I'm only saying the Repugs CANNOT DISOWN the Sequester Bill that their necessary vote approved.

I AM SAYING the Repugs have bullied the sequester to be put into action, THE REPUGS OWN THE SEQUESTER ACTION, with their extreme, no-compromise position of absolutely refusing any tax increases.

If you would have said that they co-own the sequester, then you might get some more sympathy for your position.

But I thought you claimed Republicans oppose everything Obama proposes? How can it be that they voted for his proposal?

And Republicans haven't absolutely refused any tax increases. Tax increases just passed in the House back in January. Is your memory THAT bad?

"oppose everything Obama proposes"

they do, but they saw some advantage to the Repugs in the Sequester Bill. They certainly were not giving any advantage to the Dems.

"Tax increases just passed in the House back in January"

those were the minimum the Repugs would allow to kick the govt default down the road. It was to THEIR advantage not to be tatooed with another govt shutdown.

Now we're on a totally different subject, the sequester, so the sequester tax question is not solved, eg, it's "de novo", starting from zero.

I just refuted two absolute statements you made. ing idiot.

Dems have proposed raising revenue and cutting spending. The Repugs counter with nothing but cutting "out of control" spending, NEVER raise any taxes or revenue.
