There it is. The White House Office of Management & Budget ordered the closing of the WWII Memorial. Disgusting. — Kathleen McKinley (@KatMcKinley) October 2, 2013

Yep, there it is. Harry Reid can point his grotesque fingers at the GOP all he wants, but the order to close the World War II Memorial reportedly came straight from the executive branch.

The OMB, or Office of Management and Budget is part of the executive branch and reports directly to President Obama.

Only Obama would think the WWII Memorial needs to be protected from WWII veterans. — Eric H. (@ericinva) October 2, 2013

Not only did the order to keep World War II veterans away from their memorial come from the top, but Park Service employees have been “excepted” from the furlough to make it happen

Paging the lapdog media:

Got that? White House ordered closing of WWII memorial and just said they'd veto a bill opening it. Got that, Media? — RBe (@RBPundit) October 2, 2013

Media thronelickers..This isn't hard 1. Memorial is outdoors. Always open 2. OMB (Obama admin) HIRED people to barricade & police it — Stephen Miller (@redsteeze) October 2, 2013
