Quick: how much were Social Security, Medicaid and food stamps cut by the sequester? Zero, you say? Those programs were exempted from sequester cuts, and Medicare was reduced by only 2%? Correctomundo!
So what was Andrea Mitchell thinking when she claimed on her MSNBC show that the sequester "gutted" social programs? You tell me.

Andrea looks as if she’s been gilled and gutted.

When the Dems said the Repubs gutted Education in NC, I showed them that the budget actually increased over last year.
Unwelcomed fact.

If Andrea wants to see a gutted program she should look at Medicare. The Democrats are cutting $760 billion from Medicare (10 years) to prop up ObamaCare. My doctor told me he did not expect Medicare to survive another 10 years.

LOL: Andrea Mitchell Claims Social Programs 'Gutted' By Sequester...funny - Mitchell graduated from the University of Pennsylvania back in the day when journalism - her field - was considered the "gut" course of study, where those not sharp enough to major in anything else ended up - she should know "gutted".....

My guess is that if you asked, a sizeable number of Americans would have no idea that the US was still “sequestered.”
