YES!!!
I been posting to let those automatic spending cuts go into effect all year but naturally we got a bunch of Republicans including many here dramatic whining about half the cuts demanding they be repealed (???), led by Ryan ironically who called the same 2011 bill historic.
Of course they should let them go, The bloated Fed government will never miss it.
But I will add that Bohner was put into an impossible situation on the taxes. Success was defined (by ‘always wrong Rush’ and CO) in way that was impossible to achieve : forcing Reid and O to extend all the tax cuts after they won the election, and with most Americans going to blame Bohner if they all went up.
In fact the ‘dont pass nuthin’ crowd was not even honest in their arguments.
Now, with the tax increase sequester gone, the House only needs to worry about the expense reduction sequester, which is an easy one for the Republicans. Let them go over the cliff with it. The House can always vote emergency funds for defense from time to time. The net result would be $3 trillion of cuts over ten years versus $600 billion of tax increases, a 5:1 ratio.
