WHITE HOUSE EMAIL: THE SEQUESTER NEEDS TO BE AS PAINFUL AS WE SAID IT WOULD BE

 If any observers thought the White House was bluffing in its dire, even sadistic predictions about the outcome of the sequester, they may be disappointed. A new internal email discovered by the Washington Times suggests that, even if the negative effects of the budget cuts known as “sequestration” can be blunted, the White House has precisely no interest in doing so, most likely because it would undermine their bargaining position with Congress.

The Washington Times reports:

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.”

  4. It seems the People's House is now being taking hostage and Egypt is given millions of our dollars by this man and his party.

    That speaks volumes to me of a dictatorship in the making.

    Power is intoxicating and this man is drunk on it.

    WE THE PEOPLE will suffer for now.

  6. Obozo will make sure none of the bloated programs and stupid wasting of money will stop, only cherry picked government funded activities that will cause the most pain to the working class and give propaganda fuel to his puppet MSM buddies.

  8. Crazy like a fox they are. It seems to me that the industries that are being hit are ripe for privitazation. Food inspectors, air traffic controllers, etc. It will be interesting to watch who in the private sector will step up to provide services and who they support in Washington.
