Republicans: Obama Wants Us To Suffer!

Senator Rand Paul (R-Kentucky) and Republicans are scrambling over sequester cuts.

You can't have it both ways, Republicans! For one thing, you got your freaking spending cuts.

The president wants revenue increases. It's a simple tax increase on the wealthy. Republicans don't want no part of this. They figure the way to saving the economy is austerity cuts. They want to starve the government.

Compromise isn't an easy thing here in Washington, D.C. Right now Rand Paul, the controversial Republican senator from Kentucky spent a majority of his time filibustering the president's nominees and even turning down Congressman Paul Ryan's budget. He signals that he will once again filibuster the upcoming proposals by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-California). She wants a stronger firearm background checks and the Republican senator along with Senator Marco Rubio (R-Florida) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas) are going to work in unison to stop it along with other proposals. Immigration reform also has Republicans pouting at the mouth and probably threatening to derail it.

Paul figured the budget proposals didn't go far enough on spending cuts, so he voted against it with the Democratic majority.

Rubio figured it wasn't going to seal the borders, so he will filibuster against immigration reform.

Cruz wants to lecture lawmakers on how to read the U.S. Constitution. If you're proposing laws that restrict firearms, he's filibustering it.

Since two members of the Republican senate came in favor of gay marriage, the Republicans threaten to primary them. Senator Rob Portman (R-Ohio) and Senator Mark Kirk (R-Illinois) are facing threats of primary challenges for their support.

The Congressional Republicans are upset that the White House has canceled tours.

Do you think the president want the Republicans to suffer?

I mean the blinking contest has taken a toll on the president and Congress.

The Republicans refuse revenues and the Democrats refuse austerity cuts to domestic programs.

They both equally detest shared sacrifices.
