From FOX News:
President Obama said Tuesday that the decision was between cutting Secret Service agents or canceling the tours after sequestration took effect March 1.Karl wasn't trivializing the issue.
ABC News’ Jonathan Karl pressed Carney yesterday, asking “how much does it cost for (the president) to go and play golf?” Carney then accused Karl of “trivializing” the issue, and Karl responded that “this is about choices” for the Obama administration about what gets cut.
He was asking a legitimate question.
Here's video:
It's insane to blame Republicans for shutting down the White House tours. Insane.
Carney has the audacity to blame the Tea Party! Insane.
