Apparently the latest whine on the GOP front has to do with the White House announcing that, due to staff cuts brought about by the sequester, White House tours are cancelled indefinitely. The cuts are meant to allow the Secret Service to reassign those normally meant to provide security during the tours to other postings, allowing them to save money on overtime and avoid furloughs.

But Republicans, who now are gonna have to go through the trouble of calling constituents and informing them that their tour has been cancelled, are pissed and are pushing for an amendment to their own Continuing Resolution that would require Obama to give up golf until the tours are started up again.
