During a panel discussion on Tuesday's NBC Today, co-host Matt Lauer urged the liberal Today's Professionals pundits to assign blame for the upcoming budget sequester: "I want you to complete the following sentence, 'And the blame goes to...' Almost by every analysis people agree this will hurt the economy, hurt the recovery, might even damage national security. And the blame goes to?" [Listen to the audio or watch the video after the jump]
Chief medical editor Nancy Snyderman ranted: "The American public for not being invested enough in the terms of what it means and firing every one of these SOBs the next time it comes around." Advertising executive Donny Deutsch agreed, arguing: "We are a country now of complete non-self sacrifice. You can't blame the politicians. Blame us, because nobody wants to give on anything."
Well well well looks like “NBC” got it 1/2 right.
The blame has to be the American people. After all they voted Obama as President not once but twice. The guy did nothing in his first term but spend us into deeper debt, lost our credit rating, got Obamacare passed (tax raising job killing) and what did the American people do? Re-elected him..........
Are they saying there’s no democrats in the American public?
Donny is free to live in a modest condo and take the bus to work everyday keep enough money to put away for the same retirement most people can expect and donate the rest of his money to charity. Bet he doesn't though.

translation: You are all too stupid to bask in Obama’s brilliance and give him what he wants.
I thought the ‘American Public’ was the crowd of morons who put “O” in the WH!?
I was flipping channels and some talking head on CNN the other day was making the argument that more money should be `transferred’ from the `rich’ to the poor because—OK, hold on to your hats—`the poor spend all of their income, rather than saving it, and this stimulates the economy’.
Like Trampus in `The Virginian’ I kept waiting for him to smile, but he was serious. Incredible.
...This is absolutely correct...this is the same old song and dance the media has played since he tanked the economy and damn near collapsed Wall Street...The nation will continue to suffer from his shoddy non performance and his nickle and dime advise on how to govern the country...I think his betrayal of the so called “Folks” which he banters about is pathetic and undignified of a statesman which he is not...this administration has but one goal as I see and that is to destroy the economic and moral fiber of the country as quickly as possible within the next four years and will not relent til we the people are at each others throats and panic and uprisings become the daily norm...This is how revolutions begin my friends , and if you can read the play book they are right on schedule as the Constitution is now in jeopardy once again and fear is their daily gambit!!!
Nationalized Broadcasters of Communism.
The American Public is America. So we blame America for what happens in America? All’s well, folks. The story’s not over yet.
We lowly peasants ruined their chances of having more debt and other goodies from Uncle Samantha funneled to relatives of their sponsors.
