Sequester perspective: Obama's perpetual campaign

Time for some perspective. Does any of this look like Obama's federal government is winding to a halt under sequestration?

What sequester? Obama Admin Approves $37 Million Deal To Increase Aid To Pakistan...

Ummm...nope. Priorities...maintaining the bloat of government.

But when it comes to affecting you, the citizen, he wants to personally inflict as much pain as possible.

WashingtonTimes: The Obama administration denied an appeal for flexibility in lessening the sequester’s effects, with an email this week appearing to show officials in Washington that because they already had promised the cuts would be devastating, they now have to follow through on that.

In the email sent Monday by Charles Brown, an official with the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service office in Raleigh, N.C., Mr. Brown asked “if there was any latitude” in how to spread the sequester cuts across the region to lessen the impacts on fish inspections.

He said he was discouraged by officials in Washington, who gave him this reply: “We have gone on record with a notification to Congress and whoever else that ‘APHIS would eliminate assistance to producers in 24 states in managing wildlife damage to the aquaculture industry, unless they provide funding to cover the costs.’ So it is our opinion that however you manage that reduction, you need to make sure you are not contradicting what we said the impact would be.”

“This email confirms what many Americans have suspected: The Obama administration is doing everything they can to make sure their worst predictions come true and to maximize the pain of the Sequester cuts for political gain,” said Rep. Tim Griffin, Arkansas Republican.

Thus, further proving the Limbaugh theorem.
