World Doesn't End, Obama Hardest Hit - WSJ.com
This Wall Street Journal article sort of explains:
"'Just to make the final point about the sequester,' said President Obama at his press conference Friday, 'we will get through this. This is not going to be an apocalypse, I think, as some people have said.' That's a relief, but it is also a major walk-back, since the "some people" who have been predicting apocalypse are the President and senior members of his Administration. Normal Americans awoke Friday to find that the veneer of civilization had not fallen away. If the federal government does end up spending $44.8 trillion over the next decade instead of $46 trillion, they may not notice at all."
