Draggingtree Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 The Oklahoman: President Obama plan: Blame others, raise taxes The Oklahoman Editorial | Published: February 21, 2013 Sequestration, the name given to automatic budget cuts set to begin March 1, was the brainchild of the Obama administration back in 2011 when a deal was being sought to raise the debt ceiling. Now President Barack Obama is blaming Republicans in Congress for the fact the sequester may actually occur. Obama touched on this during his State of the Union speech. He was at it again Tuesday, telling those assembled that if the sequester occurs, “people will lose their jobs.” No kidding! Under the sequester, the government would have to cut $1.2 trillion over the next 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
