Juan Williams Discusses Obama’s Role In Averting Massive, Automatic Spending Cuts

From Mediaite, about the moderate-liberal commentator: "A heated debate erupted on Fox News Sunday’s panel between liberal columnist Juan Williams and conservative editor of The Weekly Standard, Bill Kristol, on Sunday amid a debate about what role President Barack Obama can take in heading off the automatic spending cuts in the sequester. Kristol and Williams battled over whether the onus is on Obama or Congressional Republicans to halt those cuts before they take effect."

The article continues: "'Republicans have to take a responsible posture,' Williams said to Rep. Tom Cotton (R-AR). 'I think there’s an overwhelming consensus on Capitol Hill that a lot of those [deduction and subsidies to corporation and interest groups] can be done away with. So, why not work with the president to avoid sequestration that you say would be draconian?'"
