What I don't get is the beef about the sequester from the right. It's not like the House couldn't pass a bill eliminating it that Obama would sign in a heartbeat. So who is REALLY responsible for the sequester taking effect? The same people beefing about it, that's who.
As Bob Woodward discovered, the sequestration came from the Obama White House. It's Obama's sequestration. It's what Obama wanted where 50 % of the cuts would be from national defense so Obama could speed up his dismantling of the U.S. military.
