That's a kind of madness that I haven't seen in a long time

It was pretty obvious to many of us early on.
I am glad Woodward is beginning to understand the threat Obama poses to the country. Maybe some people will realize it is not because he is black.

.... Dear Mr. Obama ...... Now that there is more unsavory news leaking out about something that originated from the Whitehouse. Before you start warming up your Whitehouse bus to throw your next victim of blame under for something that for some reason ..... you .... again .... and again .... and again .... had no knowledge of ..... May I remind you .... that .... Mr. President ...... YOU ARE THE WHITEHOUSE!!!!

Note the Reuters bias woven subtly into the wording to fool the Low-Information Voter (LIV):

Last week, Woodward published an opinion piece [...] saying the administration was "wrong" to blame the cuts on Republicans.

Putting "wrong" in quotation marks intends to leave an impression that there is something wrong with that word choice on the part of Woodward.

That drew retorts from White House press secretary Jay Carney, who [...] blamed the budget stalemate on Republican opposition to including increased revenues in any deal to replace the cuts.

"Revenues" instead of "taxes". Revenues are good! What's wrong with more income - if you are a business, that's good! So how can those evil Republicans be opposed to "revenues"?

The $85 billion across-the-board budget cuts were mandated by Congress and the White House [...].

... by (a) Congress and (b) the White House - sure doesn't give you the impression that the White House came up with the idea and pushed it onto the Congress.

The LIV gets the message that the Republicans in Congress drove this idea, are poor businessmen by refusing higher income for the government, and now with the help of Bob Woodward are blaming Saint Obama. All under the guise of a neutral, "just the facts Ma'am" news service with no axe to grind.

The lapdog Rooters is still not telling the whole story. A key part of Woodward's piece is that the sequestration was totally Obama’s idea, and that it included NO tax increases. By blaming the Republicans, and then by moving the goal posts to include tax increases, Obama is not only LYING, he is also acting like an irresponsible, petulant cry baby.

Obama runs around the country declaring “the sky is falling”.

Where are the budget cutters with their mile long lists of “bridge to nowhere” programs that could be cut. Where are the Stossel types who can rattle off wasteful programs like ice cream flavors. When Obama says the airports will close, someone needs to remind him not to worry, the snail darter & lizard protection programs will not be affected.

These are the counter arguments to Obama’s nonsense. These are the arguments that even the dumbest Lib can appreciate.

Stossel, BTW, attempted to highlite wasteful programs this morning, but his method - a true/false quiz of F&F hosts - came off lame. By presenting both real & fake examples of gov’t waste, he left the viewer with the impression that stories of waste are as likely false as true. The problem is waste, not fake waste or the perception of fake waste.
