Jeb Bush: Obama 'Led Charge to Say Widows, Orphans are Going to be out on Street'

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush sat down with "Today" show's Matt Lauer Monday to talk about issues ranging from immigration reform to CPAC to sequester ... oh yeah, and possibly a 2016 White House bid.

First, on the sequester, Bush was critical of how the president handled the crisis, saying there was a lot of "crying wolf by President Barack Obama, who he claims led the charge to say widows and orphans are going to be out on the street and when that did not occur, the president had to walk back those comments Friday, he said.

Bush also admitted to being a little surprised that Gov. Chris Christie, of New Jersey, did not get an invite to speak at the upcoming Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), where Bush is heading to next week.

When asked the question everyone wants answered, Bush stopped just short of saying yes to a White House run in 2016, saying, I wont [rule it out] but Im not going to declare today either
