I have no other way to explain it. There is a budget process that is law. The Democrats ignored it and "deemed" a spending resolution "passed". Honest people do not do that. It's not a budget by any stretch of the imagination. It's nothing more than a slimy attempt to cover up their spending and taxing before the November elections.
The enforcement resolution is being used instead of a full-fledged budget resolution because rank-and-file Democrats did not want to vote for a budget resolution that would show large deficits, particularly in an election year marked by worries about the nation’s fiscal solvency.
They are trying to hide behind the skirts of the White House Fiscal Commission.
The budget document, however, doesn’t say what policies Congress should enact to reach that out-year goal, something past budget resolutions have done. Instead, it relies on the White House fiscal commission, a bipartisan panel looking at tax, spending and entitlement policies, to come up with a plan to reach their target by 2015.
A Congress that, according to the Speaker of the House, is supposed to be the most honest and transparent Congress ever, is in a word, neither. They lie, cheat and steal and the hell of it is, the media do nothing but look the other way.
Don't blame this idiocy on Bush. The Democrats have been in charge of Congress two years before Bush left office. GROW UP AND START TAKING RESPONSIBILITY!
Of course they won't. Blaming Bush is all they have. They have no answers, they have no leadership and most of all, damned few of them - if any - have the slightest sense of integrity.

VW, this current Congress couldn't give one shit less about YOU, the "little people." Your job is to sit down, shut up, work harder and provide them with the manna they desire in order to parse it out to ONLY those who will VOTE for them AGAIN.
