So sequestration is not good enough because it was not ALL domestic cuts and did not include Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. So I guess he is saying that they will pursue more draconian cuts because these are not good enough. Or perhaps that they will relent if Obama ends and restores funds to Defense and tax cuts to the rich.

(169 posts)republicans have been actively making government more ineffective and bloated with corruption. It is in their mindset to decimate the government and instill a nation run by the wealthy and corporate interests. If the government is shutdown conservatives and libertarians will only blame the 'dysfunctional' government. In short, no matter what is done the republicans have their way with this country. It has been that way since the Nixon years.
