A budget deal has been reached!

A budget deal has been reached! Is this bad news for the labs? Is the NNSA going to get the sequester cuts? http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/11/us/politics/party-leaders-indicate-deal-is-reached-on-budget.html?_r=0

It should be great news for the labs. The money for different "agencies" (i.e., the various departments of government on the discretionary side) would see a nice ~5% increase for this year if this deal passes.

However, I doubt it will pass through the Congress unless conservatives see more cutbacks. In fact, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky) in the Senate is known to be a big fan of the automatic cuts brought about by sequestration.

Don't worry friends, the Lab will get enough Do-Rae-Me for business to continue as normal. What I'm hoping is that our CIP comes through unscathed!

What a shame they did not cut the labs by 10% a year for the next decade. I was hoping someone on capitol hill has some balls but what should one expect. Regardless of what is reported here I did hear first hand the budget at LLNL is not all that good and layoffs will continue behind the scenes.

Deal now looks like it will die in the Senate.

Oh, well. Back to the sequestration cuts.

Now I know why everyone wants to keep POS around, for comical entertainment!

Maybe we could do a "Top Ten Count Down" of all his imbecile statements once a week.

Like in the Dirty Harry way? Harry was a real man. Dirty Harry did not have a Ph.d. I venture to guess that Clint Eastwood does not have a Ph.d either even though he is a bit left to my taste if you know what I am saying.

Did you ever think POS might have a point? Did you every think that POS is just saying the obvious that we all know to be true? Maybe POS did get his money from the government but like the military he deserved it for serving his country and not earning by just thinking about how great he was because he was soo smart. Did you ever thing POS might be smarter than all the educated typs? Did you ever think POS could have been a great manager or professor or leader except that people with education laughed at him? Did you ever think that freedom of religion might be wrong? Think about that and realize what are the odds of POS being a bitter nutcase vs a unrecognized genius screwed by the left. Open you mind people the possibilities are endless and the truth is not just out there but is is also real.

The odds are heavily tilted toward bitter nutcase.

Did you ever think about how bitter a person would have to be to read this blog regularly, and comment regularly, after retiring with a lot of money? Did you ever think that you must not be eating the right thing, because 50 million flies can't be wrong and they're eating something else? Did you ever think that you'd be entertained by reading this much BS from this blog?
