Team Obama wants you to feel Sequester Pain While you're on Vacation

Here we have a President with unlimited resources every time he decides to take a vacation (and we know that's quite often) who's team has now decided to do take his sequester frustration out on those of you who make use of the National Parks:
Another federal employee has come forward to claim the Obama administration resisted efforts to ease the impact of sequester. 
A U.S. park ranger, who did not wish to be identified, told FoxNews.com that supervisors within the National Park Service overruled plans to deal with the budget cuts in a way that would have had minimal impact on the public. Instead, the source said, park staff were told to cancel special events and cut "interpretation services" -- the talks, tours and other education services provided by local park rangers.
"Apparently, they want the public to feel the pain," the ranger said. 
The National Park Service is among many federal agencies warning of a major impact from the sequester cuts, which took effect last Friday. The agency has warned of delayed access to portions of Yellowstone and Yosemite national parks, closed campgrounds at Great Smoky Mountains National Park, reduced hours at the Grand Canyon visitor center and other ramifications.

Just Obama's little way of saying, "I'm the boss of you, and don't you forget it," and "All your base are belong to us."

America missed a great opportunity to fire the guy.
