“It seems childish – take my ball and go home”

Kansas Teens: Obama Ruined Our Spring Break - Todd Starnes/FOX

A group of Kansas teenagers says the Obama Administration has ruined their spring break trip to Washington, D.C. after their tour of the White House was canceled – a victim of the Sequester.

“President Obama is just being petty,” said Dalton Glasscock, an 18-year-old high school student from Wichita, Kan.

Glasscock is a member of the Kansas Federation of Teenage Republicans – one of the dozens of high school and middle school groups around the nation that received cancelation notices.

“I think he’s taking it out on young people especially,” said Glasscock. “President Obama is using American children as pawns in a game of political chess.”

Rep. Kevin Cramer (R-ND) told Fox News the cancelations are politically motivated. “It seems childish – take my ball and go home,” he said.
