Obama asks governors to urge
Congress to avoid sequestration
---------------------------------------------
"The nation's governors don't have much patience for the fiscal follies now playing in Washington, D.C. They're required by their states' constitutions to balance their budgets -- they don't need blunt instruments like sequestration's across-the-board spending cuts to do the job. They and their state legislators simply make tough choices on spending and taxes -- the way government is supposed to work."

(CNSNews.com) – At a meeting with the National Governors Association on Monday, President Barack Obama closed his prepared speech by saying he wanted the press cleared out of the room so he could take some questions.
After saying he looked forward to working with the governors to build a “thriving middle class," Obama said: “That’s our goal, and I know that’s the goal of all of you as well. So I look forward to our partnering--and with that, what I want to do is clear out the press so we can take some questions."
