Bob Woodward, the man who brought Nixon down, has these harsh words for Obama on the nonsense regarding Sequester.

Woodward: Can you imagine Ronald Reagan sitting there and saying ‘Oh, by the way, I can’t do this because of some budget document?’ Or George W. Bush saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to invade Iraq because I can’t get the aircraft carriers I need’ or even Bill Clinton saying, ‘You know, I’m not going to attack Saddam Hussein’s intelligence headquarters,’ as he did when Clinton was president because of some budget document? 

Under the Constitution, the president is commander-in-chief and employs the force. And so we now have the president going out because of this piece of paper and this agreement, I can’t do what I need to do to protect the country. That’s a kind of madness that I haven’t seen in a long time.  

Obama is refusing to send one of our aircraft carriers to the Mediterranean,  because of so-called Sequester cuts.  He has already shorted the military 2 aircraft carriers, cutting that  fleet of ships from 11,  as stated by law,  to 9,  and now,  has decided to scare the general population,  using Sequester to cut military participation in a very critical part of the world.  It is this,  that Woodward calls "madness."  And when Woodward speaks of "a long time,"  he references the Nixon era.
