Who picked the word 'sequester' anyway?

A final thought, which goes like this. We've just gotta find a new word for "sequester." Because really, it's just not fun to say -- or hear. At least "fiscal cliff" had a certain ring to it, even though we didn't really love that either.
Speaker of the House John Boehner is trying to get some traction for "Obamaquester." Funny, if not entirely accurate.
So over to you. Tweet us @MarketplaceAPM or @KaiRyssdal, or comment below with your suggestion.

Congressional Constipation - just googled it, this is actually a commonly used phrase. lack of originality, but a nice segue and less partisan suggestion of Fiscal Constipation mentioned in a more recent post.
Either way, with the likes of a waivering and pandering House Speaker, the first rings true for me.
