Media Predicts Obama Win in Sequestration Debate...

Controlling the message: Why Obama has the PR upper hand in sequestration battle - NBC Politics

Of course they could give Equal Time and Placement to the Side that Opposes Obama...

But why would they do that when they can just Fawn all over him instead?...

There's a Disturbing Combination of Rooting for the President while Concluding that he's going to Dominate Coverage...

Coverage by Whom?... NBC for one.

Why is it that he is Dominating Coverage?...

Are they Restricted from giving Equal Footing to the GOP when they are in front of a mic Discussing the Opposing Side's Position?...

They Obsessively Covered Bush's Opposition for 8 Years.

They Rarely Predicted Defeat for the (D)'s regardless of how Obvious Defeat was...

1994 comes to Mind.

You Think Republicans are Pissy and Cranky right now about Losing last Fall?...

The Crybabying that Followed the Route of 1994 was Fucking Epic.

Because the Fart-smelling Liberal Media would not beleive what was Coming and that left everyone Shocked when it happened.

It's Amazing to me even though I've Witnessed now for the better part of 25 years how the "Free Press" continues to do this and get away with it.

They are Reporting on the Lack of Reporting for the Opposition to the President...

As if someone else is Supposed to do it... You know like some other Entity that didn't Vote for Obama like they did.



peace...

Email tells feds to make sequester as painful as promised
Tuesday, March 5, 2013 - The White House announced Tuesday that it is canceling tours of the president’s home for the foreseeable future as the sequester spending cuts begin to bite and the administration makes good on its warnings of painful decisions.

Announcement of the decision — made in an email from the White House Visitors Office — came hours after The Washington Times reported on another administration email that seemed to show at least one agency has been instructed to make sure the cuts are as painful as President Obama promised they would be.

In the internal email, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service official Charles Brown said he asked if he could try to spread out the sequester cuts in his region to minimize the impact, and he said he was told not to do anything that would lessen the dire impacts Congress had been warned of. “We have gone on record with a notification to Congress and whoever else that ‘APHIS would eliminate assistance to producers in 24 states in managing wildlife damage to the aquaculture industry, unless they provide funding to cover the costs.’ So it is our opinion that however you manage that reduction, you need to make sure you are not contradicting what we said the impact would be,” Mr. Brown, in the internal email, said his superiors told him.

Neither Mr. Brown nor the main APHIS office in Washington returned calls seeking comment, but Agriculture Secretary Thomas J. Vilsack, who oversees the agency, told Congress he is trying to give flexibility where he can. “If we have flexibility, we’re going to try to use it to make sure we use sequester in the most equitable and least disruptive way,” the secretary told Rep. Kristi L. Noem, a South Dakota Republican who grilled Mr. Vilsack about the email. “There are some circumstances, and we’ve talked a lot about the meat inspection, where we do not have that flexibility because there are so few accounts.”

Ms. Noem told Mr. Vilsack that the email made it sound like the administration was sacrificing flexibility in order to justify its earlier dire predictions. “I’m hopeful that isn’t an agenda that’s been put forward,” the congresswoman told Mr. Vilsack.

IRS mum, but sequester isn’t likely to stall Obamacare taxes
Wednesday, March 6, 2013 - The Internal Revenue Service may have warned about agency cutbacks due to sequestration, but in the end, taxes from Obamacare appear as if they’re going forth, on target and on schedule.

More than 40 tax changes stem from the Affordable Care Act. And both IRS and Treasury officials warned about changes and delays in services due to employee furloughs, The Hill reports. Turns out, those warnings may be unnecessary. At least one former tax attorney says the recent silence of IRS and Treasury officials on questions about sequester impacts is actually speaking volumes.

“The silence is deafening,” said Chris Condeluci, a former tax counsel for Senate Finance Committee Republicans, in The Hill. “ACA implementation is a priority. Their silence with regard to the sequester indicates that they won’t let anything get in the way of implementation, sequestration or otherwise.”
