America Won World War II In Less Time Than It Has Taken Democrats to Pass a Budget In the Senate
Chris Miles
The last time Senate Democrats passed a budget, what they once called “the most basic responsibility of governing,†was April 29, 2009.
Now the House, led by Republicans, is looking to force the budget issue.
House Republicans will vote on Wednesday to raise the debt ceiling without matching spending cuts. The measure is both a concession by the GOP that Republican obstructionism is no longer working, and represents a new legislative strategy by GOPers in the 113th Congress.
Republican leaders feel confident they will be able to pass the bill, which suspends the debt ceiling until May 19.
Gee, Ma. Why don't anyone like us? (http://www.policymic.com/articles/23857/america-won-world-war-ii-in-less-time-than-it-has-taken-democrats-to-pass-a-budget-in-the-senate)
