Paul Ryan voted in favor of the bill. Talk to him about it.

Obama and the dems inserted the provision[/quote]Inserted my ass. It was front and center, and Ryan took the deal.  Remember who was hot and heavy to cut the deficit, in a recession, without tax increases.  No weaseling out of this one.  Your vote is your vote.[/quote]

Libs want to reduce the military and inserted the defunding provision and black mailed everyone , military should have been left off the table . [/quote]

The entire point of sequestration is to be an undesirable alternative to force Congress to reach an agreement on deficit-reduction. If only non-defense cuts were on the table, the Republicans would simply refuse to negotiate because the resulting cuts would be fine with them. By having across the board cuts, including defense, as a thread Republicans and Democrats have incentive to reach a deal. Rather than negotiating, Republicans are crying about potential defense cuts. They should stop the whining and start negotiating.
