They missed it, they actually, truly missed it

[emptystep]

And now the R are throwing a temper tantrum.

Four years of obstruction and filibustering and when they get called on being the worst in our history, they actually have the nerve to throw a tantrum and threaten even more obstruction.

About what? This is emptyhead's freakout thread.

LOL

Damn right it is!

What The Fiscal Cliff Could Mean For The FDA - Forbes
What would these spending cuts mean in practice? One thing worth considering is what could happen to the Food and Drug Administration, which regulates a quarter of the U.S. economy in the form of medicines, medical devices, and food. In September, the Office of Management and Budget said that if Congress failed to reach a budget, it could cut $318 million from the FDA’s $4.5 billion budget. According to the Alliance For A Stronger FDA, an advocacy group, that poses a particular problem for the FDA because most of its money goes to paying scientists, inspectors, and other employees. The only way to save money would be to furlough or lay off employees, slowing down drug approvals and safety inspections. Many of those employees might find jobs elsewhere if they are sent home without pay.

OMFG! And the bullet store is closed so I can't buy more bullets!

From this point on everyone has to work under the assumption that the sequestration will happen, because it is happening.

Yep it is in the constitution so congress can't change the rules.

Just more GOP political suicide. Come on 2014...

I bet the Democrat party can't wait for everyone's taxes to go up this year... Now they can all run on lowering your taxes LOLOLOLOLZ!

It's not like the WH and Congress can't still undo this stuff when they reconvene. This whole thing has been way overblown.

And if not, well, then those teabaggers won't be able to gripe so much about the deificit then, will they...

Well somehow they managed NOT to do it today. You have so much confidence that they will when they reconvene. Maybe the day after that. If not, maybe the day after that. Well I'm sure it will happen some day soon.

I find the word "maybe" in BOLDFACE very alarming.

The House has passed a budget every year. The Senate has not held a serious vote on a budget, yet the GOP are obstructionists? Yeah, right!
