I guess the sequester didn't end up hurting us at all, eh tick?

[bluetick]

Well sardis, we're only a few month in.

Here's hoping republican austerity doesn't drag on as long as republican wars do.

Too much government spending (much of it on government union pensions and health care), too much borrowing, and too many tax increases that drove businesses elsewhere.

Liberal economics wants to do for America what it did for Detroit.

Adding one part time job for every two people that go on disability......pure genius. Look out China!!111

Merely 6 years ago our republican county voted to replace the gold pension plan for county law enforcement with a diamond jubilee one. Ads with deputies pulling cats out of trees did the trick, despite protestations from sensible people that this would be our ruin. It passed (puter and I voted against the plan to no avail), and then anybody with any connection to law enforcement jumped onboard...DA's office, 911, court staffs, etc..

Again, all the players were repub...sheriff, mayor, nearly all the commissioners, voters (there are practically no dems in East TN). Now the current county mayor is stuck trying to mitigate this disaster.

Only one thing worse than a Republican.......

Anything that deflects any responsibility for 5 years of hope and change.

Five years ago there was some big economic shitstorm and everybody's 401ks tanked. Some people stayed in - I guess they endorsed hope and change.

[Toemeesleather]

Still consistent.....nothing.
