Even though Obama said that he would veto any legislation that tried to stop sequestration right before it was to become effective Obama tried to blame it all on the republicans and Obama and Democrats went on a "the world is coming to an end" tour trying to gin up his base to stop sequestration. Obama wanted to make the cuts as painful to the American people as possible so he could attack republicans and hopefully win the house in 2014. He could care less about Americans, he is all about politics and making us pay higher taxes so he can spend more money.

made big news.
