He'd rather stick with the "it's all the Republicans' fault" line.TheHill: The White House on Thursday threatened to veto the Senate Republican sequester bill in the unlikely event it passes Congress.
“If the President were presented with S. 16, his senior advisors would recommend that he veto the bill,” the White House said.
The Senate GOP bill, sponsored by Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) and Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), would give the administration added power to determine how to implement the $85 billion in spending cuts, known as the sequester, set to take effect Friday.
ADDENDUM: To note, prior to Obama's wafting away of the above responsibility, the President confessed Wednesday night that Americans 'might not be felt right away.' Uh huh. Just confirms that the sky is not falling...the world will not end...and Obama's every bit of the lying alarmist we knew he was. The immediate 'hit' that will be affected, though, is Obama's ability to continue growing government at his current breakneck pace. That's a good thing.
Rush chimed in on this back-peddling today...
