If you want a thorough agency-by-agency rundown of the budget cuts sequestration would deliver, the Office of Management and Budget has you covered. In compliance with The Sequestration Transparency Act of 2012, the OMB sent a detailed report to Congress in September 2012. But there's a small problem with the report: One of the cuts it warns against would affect an agency that no longer exists--and didn't exist when the OMB sent its report to congress.
The first line item on page 121 of the OMB's September 2012 report says that under sequestration the National Drug Intelligence Center would lose $2 million of its $20 million budget. While that's slightly more than 8.2 percent (rounding error or scare tactic?), the bigger problem is that the National Drug Intelligence Center shuttered its doors on June 15, 2012--three months before the OMB issued its report to Congress.

But those facts won't stop Obama from claiming that this is a disastrous spending cut.
They are also cutting the budget for the federal department of Transportation's Horse and Buggy inspectors, and the Agricultural Department's Wooden Milk Churn inspection division and the the FCC's Rotary Phone Dial inspection division.
And another......what the .......is wrong with these people? It's B.S. story after B.S. story. You have to feel bad for those in charge of these entities the administration continues to lie about when they are having to run around trying to negate the problems their lies are causing.
Airports have denied a claim by Janet Napolitano, the secretary of homeland security, that the sequester is already causing long delays for travelers at security screening checkpoints.
Another round of lies and scare tactics by the left. When will people wake up and stop bowing down to the Liar/Loser In Chief sitting in the White House?
Even when the lies are exposed, the left continues to blindly follow and believe. Almost makes me feel sorry for them....almost.

And this weekend Kerry promised that the American people will pay taxes so we can give Egypt $250 billion in aid to help make their economy better.
How many jobs would that save?
John Kerry is doing a GREAT job as Sec of State. Korea has announced that it is ending its ceasefire with South Korea this weekend. North and South Korea will return to a state of war. This is a great time to be cutting defense spending.
The Obama Regime keeps on giving!
