Email tells feds to make sequester as painful as promised
In the internal email, Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service official Charles Brown said he asked if he could try to spread out the sequester cuts in his region to minimize the impact, and he said he was told not to do anything that would lessen the dire impacts Congress had been warned of.
We have gone on record with a notification to Congress and whoever else that APHIS would eliminate assistance to producers in 24 states in managing wildlife damage to the aquaculture industry, unless they provide funding to cover the costs. So it is our opinion that however you manage that reduction, you need to make sure you are not contradicting what we said the impact would be, Mr. Brown, in the internal email, said his superiors told him.

In other words, the White House is saying "we said the sky would fall if the sequester happened and you need to make sure that's the perception the voters see."
The sequester is a paper cut compared to Obama's spending, but we need the voters to think it slashed the budget in half so we can smear the Republicans.
Typical Democrat lying.
