Because they didnt want to go through that shutdown process again. >> i think you are right on that score. i think also, though, president obama understands what david axelrod just said, which is chaos in washington, chaos driven governance in washington hurts both sides. so it will be fascinating to see how republicans leaned up on this deem. lets go to tom col burngs hes at the u.s. capitol. whenever i hear somebody saying we are taking the sequester limits off anything, it makes me very nervo...

Acknowledge there are some long-term issues that have to be dealt with. there are also short-term issues in terms of the economy. as you pointed out, joe, many times, we cut dischretienary spending quite a bit. i dont disagree, anybody who spends time in washington understands there are savings to be made. its hard to get them because of bureaucracy safe guards. we have cut deeply into dischretienary spending in ways that havent been good for the economy. my question for senator coburn, if not t...
