Is Obama overplaying sequester hand?

Apparently not.

He came up with the idea, got Congress to approve it in the last session.

Now that may actually happen, he is blaming it on the GOP's in Congress -- and he is getting away with it.

The GOP don't seem to have a counter, don't seem to have a message, don't seem to have a leg to stand on, as they are getting blamed and taking the fall.

Of course they do, they have documents, they have video and audio recordings of his own words daring them to change it.

What they don't have is:

...a clue.

You are absolutely correct. A few minutes ago, I said the following on another thread: Every Republican lawmaker, in every public statement, interview, etc., needs to start referring to this not simply as “Sequester”, but as “The Obama Sequester.” Obama acts as though he is simply a spectator in all of this, standing on the sidelines, with no ability to do anything about the situation. Thanks to his friends in the media, he’s getting away with it, with the public thinking it’s entirely the fault of the mean, evil Republicans. Obama is the President of the United States, the most powerful figure in our government - not some helpless spectator. The Republicans need to get the message out that the buck stops with Obama, not with them. It’s the “Obama Sequester.”
