Like the sequester, Obama wants to inflict pain on the very idiots that voted for him

Email suggests Barack Obama wants the sequester to be as painful as possible | America's Watchtower
he Obama administration denied an appeal for flexibility in lessening the sequester’s effects, with an email this week appearing to show officials in Washington that because they already had promised the cuts would be devastating, they now have to follow through on that.
In the email sent Monday by Charles Brown, an official with the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service office in Raleigh, N.C., Mr. Brown asked “if there was any latitude” in how to spread the sequester cuts across the region to lessen the impacts on fish inspections.
He said he was discouraged by officials in Washington, who gave him this reply: “We have gone on record with a notification to Congress and whoever else that ‘APHIS would eliminate assistance to producers in 24 states in managing wildlife damage to the aquaculture industry, unless they provide funding to cover the costs.’ So it is our opinion that however you manage that reduction, you need to make sure you are not contradicting what we said the impact would be.”
I don't understand where the problem is here.
Isn't the current Republican meme that the US can easily accommodate the "shutdown" and the "debt limit" by carefully assigning the costs to the most important sectors?
So, you're saying that the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service is a more essential service than..say...the World War Two Memorial?
Why do you hate The Greatest Generation?
