Unfortunately, we will not be able       to reschedule affected tours,” the White House said in an email.              LATED: Email tells feds to make sequester as painful as promised              The notice comes as both the White House and Congress try to find cuts       to their own budgets as part of $85 billion in cuts to the entire       government.              As President Obama was returning from visiting wounded veterans at       Walter Reed Medical Center, a reporter shouted a question about the       decision to cancel the tours as Mr. Obama was walking from Marine One       to the Oval Office.              He simply smiled and waved.              At the Capitol, staffers who use the building’s West Front entrance       that looks out on the National Mall were told Tuesday that door would       be closed as of next week in order to save money.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
