The White House is cancelling all tours for visitors starting Sunday in an effort to save money during sequestration, a senior administration official confirmed to POLITICO.
In an email sent to Republicans on Capitol Hill, the White House said: :Due to staffing reductions resulting from sequestration, we regret to inform you that White House Tours will be canceled

Who wants to bet that Reggie Love is moving in?
Cancel the First Lady.
cutting weekday trips to the golf course are apparently off the table...
:-/
What goes on in the White Hut stays in the White Hut...
...besides, the President will not be here to see on the tour since he’ll be playing golf in the Bahamas.
(What a joke: trying to make it *appear* painful with one of the few things they can directly control.)
honestly I wouldn’t be caught dead in the white house... too afraid to be struck by lightening as part of God’s wrath.. ( only half kidding)
Politico sucks Obama like Lewinsky.
I blame the full auto asault media for this. Any other time they would have a President in check for doing things like this, but not now.
He should close the Grand Canyon and Yosemite over the July 4th weekend.
Big deal. Does anyone care? If only we could shut down Congress and the White House altogether!!!
When a school district in Ohio wants more money, the school cancels football and band.
In that vein, I think Obama’s next move will be to withdraw aid to colleges with the stipulation that the money must come from the football program.
(Yes I posted this on another thread)
Stolen from Dr Sowell:
If there was a department of government that only did two things
-erect statues of the Cat in the Hat
-develop life-saving drugs for children
and this department was facing budget cuts,
which would it cut?
The drugs for kids, of course. This would cause the most outcry and would lead to their budget NOT being cut.
Whereas if they stopped the cat statues, no one would notice, and people would probably start to question why they were doing it in the first place.
Rats! I was hoping obama and family were cancelling their “tours”(vacations) in an effort to save money. No such luck. It’s good to be king.
Is anyone EVER going to call them on their baloney? 85 Billion in cuts is no big deal when Obama pumps 85 billion into bonds every month!
...or $250 million to Egypt .
85 billion is a couple of vacations for the 0bamas.
A little paranoia creeping into the hut?
Oh, it’s not that they’re afraid of anything having to do with the tours,
it’s just that they want to shut down things that are the most visible in order to score political points.
