The White House has been slamming sequestration:
The WH is portraying budget "sequestration," which Pres Obama signed into law, as an "era of manufactured crises and mindless austerity."

“Mindless austerity”? Gee, that’s odd.

Also an "era of taking credit for shrinking deficits" and an "era of kicking and screaming." @markknoller.

@markknoller Yet continue to brag about deficit reduction. Hypocrisy at its finest.

@markknoller 60% of new job growth was by people losing their unemployment benefits. Imagine that.
