SO, THE BARRACK HUSSEIN SEQUESTER DRAMA, AND MORE, CONTINUES TO UNFOLD!!!!!!!!!!  Bob Woodward called a senior White House official last week to tell him that in a piece in that weekend’s Washington Post, he was going to question President Barack Obama’s account of how sequestration came about - and got a major-league brushback. The Obama aide “yelled at me for about a half hour,” Woodward told us in an hour-long interview yesterday around the Georgetown dining room table where so many generations of Washington’s powerful have spilled their secrets.  Digging into one of his famous folders, Woodward said the tirade was followed by a page-long email from the aide, one of the four or five administration officials most closely involved in the fiscal negotiations with the Hill. “I apologize for raising my voice in our conversation today,” the official typed. “You’re focusing on a few specific trees that give a very wrong impression of the forest. But perhaps we will just not see eye to eye here. … I think you will regret staking out that claim.”  Thinly veiled threat or outright attempt at intimidation?  I’m sure the limp-wristed Libbies will just dismiss this as Beltway bluster and the criminally complicit Liberal media will ignore it.  Hell, CNN broke this story yesterday and already has it reduced to a sidebar story while their headlines are all about Pope Benedict. It’s amazing how quickly the lamestream media becomes religious to cover for this incompetent POTUS, isn’t it?  Had this been George Bush CNN, PMSNBC and every other network would be running this in a looped-reel all day long.  Politico has identified the White House official as Gene Sperling. Of course the WH will try to spin this as a “misunderstanding”. Or they will claim that Sperling “misspoke”,,,,for half an hour!  A White House official said: "Of course no threat was intended. As Mr. Woodward noted, the email from the aide was sent to apologize for voices being raised in their previous conversation. The note suggested that Mr. Woodward would regret the observation."  So, a WH official “yells” at Woodward for half an hour but he is mistaken to take it as a threat? This would be considered intimidation, coercion, workplace violence or a hate crime in the private sector. But at the Barrack Hussein WH no threat was “intended”!  What’s most incredulous is that Politico claims that,,,  And while White House officials are certainly within their rights to yell at any journalist, including Bob Woodward, this very public battle with a Washington legend has become a major distraction at a pivotal moment for the president.  SINCE WHEN IS IT WITHIN THE GOVERNMENTS RIGHT TO YELL AT ANY JOUNALIST?  Bob Woodward is an American citizen. No government official has a right to yell or intimidate anyone, no less a member of the press. The free press.  The government works FOR US!  The feud also feeds a larger narrative because, like many others, Woodward thinks this is a very thin-skinned White House that does not like being challenged on the facts. He said that explains the senior aide’s in-your-face email. “I think when they get their rear end in a crack here, they become defensive,” he said. “This could be a huge issue if the economy takes a hit. And people are going to go back and say exactly what happened and who did it and so forth.”Thin-skinned?  This WH is so thin-skinned you can see right through them. Any challenge is dismissed and ignored. But then again the fawning media is more concerned about Barrack Husseins golf game with Tiger Woods or Moochelles Academy Award appearance than they are with a crumbling economy because we don’t have a leader, we have an endless campaigner.  What Obama never says: It was his own staff that proposed sequestration, and the tax hikes he now proposes — aimed at replacing half of the cuts — were never part of that very specific plan.The truth is exposed.  More importantly is something that many of us have been claiming.  Woodward also said that based on his reporting for the book, Obama deserves more of the blame for scuttling the grand bargain of 2011 that would have put sequestration to rest long ago. “He changed the deal and it blew up,” Woodward said. “I mean, you look at the facts, and even by the White House accounts by his aides, he was making a last-minute change.”  It was Barrack Hussein who moved the goal posts and caused our first, and so far only, credit downgrade!  All you Libbies must be so proud of how your golden boy is ruining our great Republic.
