This guy is getting ridiculous. Of all the money they piss away in D.C. how much can it really cost to let some kids have a fun outing?

i am assuming you are talking about the white house?

Yep! Despite sending notes along with the tickets allotted to each member of congress stating that it would be cut if sequester cuts went through. Now after a public uproar they are back pedaling and changing their story.

I got no problem with them cancelling this but it is bullshit when taken into context

When will we get some good candidates with backbone and voters with some brains

We need to cut everything that is non essential and this would be one example. Instead we have idiots in charge who play on emotions and are beholden to special interests.

When the fuck are we the citizens going to be special interests??

These are both very elusive critters in this country. As to the costs, it is underwritten by corporate sponsors. The secret service, despite all the BS they say about them, surely does not lay off any agents at any time. They may reduce the number slightly at a given location but they actually have a lot of other details for them to do. Like investigate threats etc. This only came to light because the tickets were printed with the cancellation threat back when they thought they could pressure congress into folding on the sequester. The shutting down student aid to our military will cost Obama dearly as it is totally unneeded. There is a ton of pork to trim before doing that. Start in congress and cut them down to 2 people per member for their offices. Christ, you would need to have the lobbyists draw numbers like at the deli.
