Boo-hoo.

We are just saying … give us flexibility to make the cuts where they will do the least harm to our citizens do the most to ensure our reelection.

What this NYT article fails to mention is that Dear Leader had a batch of Democrat Governors visit him for a private briefing on Friday afternoon.

Obama probably briefed them on how to use sequestration to inflict maximum pain on unfavored constituencies.

If you want flexibility, reclaim your power and reduce the power Washington has. Until then, I will not entertain the idea you need to be given sympathy.
I fear the thing that needs to happen is the failure of the entire government though before you actually choose to do your duties Governors!

The results are everyone crying the sky is falling. Well I looked outside today and the sky is still where it belongs and is definitely not falling. The politicians and news people need to get a real life.

they pleaded with President Obama and Congress to give them more discretion over the use of federal money

I use it again:

“Mr. President, we’d like some more“
