Left coaster Pelosi :

"I think some people may have thought sequester meant 'shut down of government.' No it means more like 'hold hostage all the things you care about so we can have across-the-board cuts'."

What's wrong with across-the-board cuts?
They are much better than continuing or increasing all the entitled and out-of-control giveaways that the Dems and their sanctimonious President refuse to cut.

There is no free lunch. Somebody has to pay for it.
