Cry "Havoc!" and let slip the dogs of sequestration!



Meh. That’s not nearly as scary as I thought it would be. In fact, I suspect that things won’t really change all that much at all.

Update - Via JeffS: Chaos!

Update II - From Anonymous in the comments: "World ends, Dow Jones Industrial Average closes up."

Update III - "World doesn't end, Obama hardest hit".

Shouldn't that be the hamsters of sequesration?

They could probably find the whole 2.3 percent or whatever it is from worthless travel and conference expenses. And gummint employees who do no work for the gummint but pull down beaucoup bucks of taxpayer money each year (like two NLRB shysters who make over 100 grand a year but spend all their time working for the NLRB Lawyers' union).

Here are some field reports concerning the sequestration.

Given a choice between facing what those guys are seeing, and the dogs, I'll take the dogs. It'll be messy but quick.

Dang! Forgot the link.

I think the first cut should be Valerie Jarett's Secret Service detail. Fat chance.

Now I hate to be one of those "guys", but.....

Shouldn't Update III be
"World doesn't end, minority hardest hit"?

I saw a photo in Saturday's Wall Street Journal of Michelle Obama at the Oscars. She was surrounded by seven (7) military aides (four were women). (One was a Marine Captain in Officer's mess dress, the most fancy and elegant uniform of any US Service.)

WTH is the President's wife doing with military aides-de-camp?

Michael: They make real nice props.

Look at Iranian Salute Guy and then look at the pics from the Oscars.
