Real Cost Of Sequester Already Being Felt By People Who Actually Matter
"US airports, including Los Angeles International and O'Hare International in Chicago, are already experiencing delays as a result of automatic federal spending cuts, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said Monday…. Napolitano said she expects a cascading effect during the week, with wait times expected to double in worst cases."

There must be a way to pin this all on Obama.
@hershmire They already have it. The line is, Obama proposed the sequester, so it's his fault – and anyway it's a good thing in the long run. (See here)
@deepomega We can laugh the Republicans all we want, but the real tragedy is the political system that defines "good thing" as "bad thing that can be pinned on the other guy", and thus thrives on producing bad shit. Sure, you could also make good things happen and claim credit, but it's much harder course of action, and thus not worth the bother. After all, if the age of Facebook and Twitter and blogging and commenting has proved anything, it's that you can mobilize an entire army to trash people at the scale not seen before in the history at almost zero cost. So break shit and fire the blame away!
