Rep. Pete Sessions named as man behind contested Obama insult

Despite the White House’s insistence that the whole brouhaha is a “misunderstanding,” the Huffington Post reports that it was Texas Republican Pete Sessions who, during the negotiations over the government shutdown, told President Obama, “I cannot even stand to look at you.”

The Huffington Post’s reporting, which is based on conversations with two unnamed senators, outlines quite the game of D.C. telephone: according to HuffPo, the story likely reached Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin through Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who in turn heard about it first from a White House staffer who was present at the time.

Harry Reid then told his caucus about Sessions’ flap. According to the report, Reid said that the president’s response to Sessions was a “dignified” recognition that the two men held vastly different beliefs.

More from the Huffington Post:

Sessions spokeswoman Torrie Miller said Thursday that the lawmaker never made those comments.

“He did not,” Miller said. “I think it was made clear yesterday from Jay Carney that the exchange you are referring to did not happen.”

Brendan Buck, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio), has been demanding an apology from Durbin.

“Senator Durbin’s accusation is a serious one, and it appears to have been invented out of thin air,” Buck said in a Wednesday statement. “The senator should disclose who told him this account of events, retract his reckless allegation immediately, and apologize.”

But Durbin isn’t backing down from his original claims.

“Sen. Durbin stands by his comments,” Durbin spokesman Max Gleischman told HuffPost Wednesday.

A request for comment from Carney was not returned, nor was a request for comment from a spokesman for Reid.

Video: Interview with Senator Jeff Sessions on immigration; Update: Video fixed

posted at 1:01 pm on June 15, 2013 by Ed Morrissey

Yesterday morning, I posted the audio from my interview of Senator Marco Rubio from Thursday night’s Hugh Hewitt show. Later in the day, Senator Jeff Sessions came on my show to give his perspective on the Gang of Eight immigration reform effort. Duane “Generalissimo” Patterson joined me as Sessions outlined his objections to the current approach, his frustration at the defeat of the Grassley amendment, and the outlook for an upcoming CBO score on the Gang of Eight proposal:

Sen. Jeff Sessions on Immigration Reform Bill from Ed Morrissey on Vimeo.

The show was posted in its entirety yesterday, and this takes place at around the 45-minute mark. It’s a hot topic, though, and I figured that Hot Air readers would appreciate an opportunity to hear Sen. Session’s remarks if they missed the show yesterday.

The CBO score may come out as soon as Monday, but if not it should be sometime this week. Sessions argues that the traditional ten-year analysis will provide a falsely positive look at the impact, since those getting normalized won’t generate extra costs in government programs until well after the first decade (in most cases). Will the CBO score the impact farther out than the first decade? That’s something to watch.

Sessions and his allies also want to see how the CBO will treat the impact on wages from normalization and increased immigration. Will it include the extra costs that have to be absorbed at the state and local levels? What about means-tested programs, especially the Earned Income Tax Credit? Sessions explains his concerns specifically about EITC in the interview with Duane and me. Be sure to watch it all.
