At Least We Now Know "Who" We Can Blame -- As Mr Bush Recedes Into the Background

One of the silver linings coming out of the sequestration: the federal government now has "something" to blame for their inefficiencies.

Administration says, starting tomorrow, federal energy permits will be delayed. 

"Oh, you haven't gotten your permit yet? It's because of the sequestration."

"Oh, you haven't gotten your permit yet? It's because of the sequestration."

"Oh, you haven't gotten your annual Social Security statement yet? It's because of the sequestration."

"Oh, you missed your flight because TSA is slow today? It's because of the sequestration."

"Oh, jobless rate went up? It's because of the sequestration."

"Oh, no Saturday mail delivery? It's because of the sequestration."

As we always said in the military: "Sounds like a personal problem."

Given an obstacle, the average soldier usually found workarounds.  Not administration department heads -- don't try do more with less; just fall back on, "it's because of the sequestration."
