Freshman Congressmen: ‘Reid and Senate Holding Americans Hostage’ by Failing to Pass Budget

Thirty seven House freshmen held a press conference on Tuesday to mark the 888th day since the U.S. Senate has taken any action on passing a federal budget.

With three toy-fortune-telling eight balls as a prop on the podium, many of the 37 freshmen said they were at the press conference to urge Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) to act to put a federal budget in place – a move the group said would end the uncertainty in the U.S. marketplace.

The group also announced the launch of “Operation Turnaround,” which seeks Senate action on 11 “pro-growth” pieces of legislation that were passed by the House but have languished in the Senate. A resolution disapproving of the Federal Communications Commission’s net neutrality regulations also was cited.

What does the Senate do all day if they don't have time to pass a budget?

Passing a budget would make it too easy to track where the money goes.  No way that the DemonRats want that.

"Budget? Who needs a budget when you still have blank checks?"...a very probable democrat/Obama quote from behind closed doors.

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
