Sequestration was designed as a failsafe to ensure that government spending was unilaterally reduced across-the-board in the event that Republican intransigence prevented a budget deal.
Both sides agreed to it and it was signed into law.
Now, with the Republicans refusing to compromise, it seems that there is a chance that sequestration may in fact be triggered.
Since virtually everyone knows that it's the Republicans who are unilaterally refusing to negotiate in good faith, they will bear the brunt of the blame for the unilateral cuts to the military, exposing for everyone to see how they place a higher priority on budget games than America's security.
Naturally, they've sent out their political shock troops to attempt to lay the blame on President Obama, which is why we have feckless cowards here nattering about "Obama's sequestration".
As usual, they are attempting to avoid personal responsibility for their actions.
Personal responsibility to a Rapepublican is like garlic to a vampire.
