“The flight delays, the furloughs among air traffic controllers, the shutting down of air traffic towers is entirely, utterly unnecessary… This is a willful choice being made by this administration in order to inflict as disruptive a process as possible on the American public and on our economy all to further a political agenda. And the political agenda is to try to convince the American people that there are no circumstances under which we can ever cut spending at all.”
— Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA), quoted by the Daily Caller, arguing that the sequester is not to blame for flight delays.
