Republicans wanted to cut government waste, right?


Posted: Apr 25, 2013

Whats the big deal about a few flight delays and airport cutbacks?  Is it just Meals on Wheels and Head Start that is the government waste? 

Typical Republicans, want the service, but do not want to pay for it.

Washington DC in the sequester-free portion of the flight map? I understand DC's airports are not affected. Now that's interesting, don't you think?

Could it be that DC airports are not stretched to capacity? - Do your research

When there is plenty of capcity, there is no problem, it is the airports that are already stretched to their limits like the NYC and smaller airports that are in relatively isolated areas that don't have that many controllers in the first place. The Republicans are whiners. They should miss a meal or have their whole life changed because of lack of educational opportunites and see how they like it.

Nope - it was supposed to be equal for all. - Read up on it.

Lack of educational opportunities??!! (sm) - Loud guffaw here

Are you serious right now?? How do you figure a lack of opportunities? They have the same opportunities and most of them get everything free. The ones who don't are to lazy to apply. OMG

I believe Congress voted to reverse the sequester - sm

regarding all flights. Meanwhile, cancer patients are being turned away, Head Start is operating via a lottery to see who can stay and who has to go, seniors receiving Meals on Wheels will go hungry, and Section 8 housing is continuing to go without money.

ALL SO THE "RICH" WON'T HAVE TO WAIT AT THE AIRPORT ANY MORE.

On the bright side, the thousands of furloughed air traffic controllers will have their jobs back again. I'm not sure if they will be PAID for the work they do, but they will be back controlling the air.

It was amusing watching the Republicans asking the question, "Why didn't you warn us this would happen with the sequester?!"

How many times do we have to tell you folks? (sm) - Same ole

It was for the Washington folks!! Obo had the opportunity to move the money around - he chose instead to punish the American people. (Like we're not punished enough with a windbag full of nothingness as our President).
