"Police protection" is an oxymoron. Gun laws are like masturbation, they both feel really good, but after you're done you realize you haven't accomplished anything."

I'm sure part of it has to do with Congress kicking the sequestration can down the road.

I wonder what superlative they would use if the drop was 0.2 percent

When Republicans took control of the house, they promised to get debt under control and get the economy going.
They had their chance. They tried. They failed. Time for a new party to control the house.
I'm thinking the Democrats maybe? Coincidentally, a majority of American voters agree.

What the hell are you talking about? Republicans have on branch of gov't, liberals have 2. How in the hell is it the responsibility or fault of the minority party that something didn't get done? WTF?? 
The republicans can't get anything through the democratically controlled senate or through the liberal president and that's the fault of the republicans? Wow. Just wow. I know you think liberals can do no wrong and are blameless, but this takes that to a whole new level.
