"Minnesota Reps. Peterson and Paulsen have the biggest targets on their backs." --- They have what on their backs? Say that in school you would be suspended. If a republican said that about a democrat they would be vilified. How insensitive can you be?

The height of Hypocracy is REVEALED with the Obama's closing the White House to the people, all while announcing the performers for Michelle's upcoming birthday party. They should host it someplace else and pay for it WITH THEIR OWN MONEY.

GREAT ARTICLE, written by a liberal for liberals. The first thing the White house does is cut off tours, blaming it the sequester, cost is about 17,000 a week for security guards while our great president spends 900,000 of taxpayer money to golf with Tiger Woods. Yeo, better start ripping Paulson early and often so Franken can get re-elected. Nothing but toilet paper [strib]

The funniest thing about the sequester is when it was discovered that dept heads were ordered to make this as painful as possible for the American people!!

Tjhe second funniest thing to come from this is when Obama's press secretary stated that 25,000 teachers were being laid off, when in fact, only 250 were and that was planned before the sequestration!!

The democrats deserve the sequester cuts. Their refusal to cut anything without corresponding tax increases are insanity. Thank you Congressmen Paulsen, Kline and Bachman

Why do you insist on printing the fact that the GOP won't raise taxes on the wealthy? Obama received a 980 billion dollar tax increase on the wealthy during the fiscial cliff negotiations.

Typical leftist garbage - continuing the screeching about federal spending that is a small percentage of the real cuts that need to happen. Claiming politicians to be victims (targets on their backs) is so far - fetched as to make this Diaz to be even less credible than he was (if that's possible). Complete garbage

Re: "became the targets of a new digital ad, “A Bunch of Dumb Cuts,” launched by the liberal group Alliance for a Better Minnesota."- The national debt went from 10 to 16 trillion under Obama, so far. That after he promised to cut it in half while campaigning in 2007. Now the liberals scream when ANY cut is discussed. The truth is they want to continue the bankrupting of this country. Full steam ahead, and Obama and Dayton and Amy and Al can do no wrong. It is so creepy that Al is now starting to peek from behind Amy's skirt, and wandering back into the limelight after the election (getting ready for his own now). The really sad thing is that the MN population has been dumbed down so far they will vote for these fools again.
