As the sequester cuts Obama signed into law in August 2011 draw closer to implementation, the Navy is making plans to ground the Blue Angels during the latter half of 2013.

Obama's too economically challenged to think out something like this. These are the things that get people out spending money thereby bolstering the economy not giving fly by night companies like Solyndra billions.
Obama didn't write the bill, Congress did. Congress has also failed to meet it's obligations as lawmakers for the past 4 years. Le't put the blame where it belongs.
It's what's called a stalemate 8:12 and sometimes it has to be done so the other side sees the reality. House and Senate Republicans demanded hugh spending cuts as a conditon for raising the debt limit. Democrats refused. Both parties had agreed to negotiate for what is known as a grand bargain (agreement in politicalese) deficit reduction package. In the end Democrats were not serious about spending cuts in any meaningfulway.
Great!

You can't have it both ways. If we want to cut spending, we have to stat somewhere. This is a good place to start!!
