51. Oh please ...
   
And you can sit here and just spout off "RW Talking point" all day, and that doesn't make it right either. I work for the federal government, and the fiscal year for the government starts on Oct. 1. Meaning the current fiscal year is from Oct. 1, 2010 to Sept. 30, 2011. Congress, starting with the House, is supposed to do a budget before the start of the fiscal year so that government agencices will know how much they have to spend for the upcoming year. October 1, 2011 starts the FY 2012 spending. Because Congress have to mess around with this, they're behind in working on the budget for FY 2012. As much as you may not like what the OP has said; the fact of the matter is that the OP is right. The House never passed a budget. In fact, there wasn't a vote to pass a budget. Here's a link to Steny Hoyer announcing that there won't be a budget back in June 2010.

No Budget

BTW, I can't believe that people are trying to bust the OP because of their low post count. There was a time you were a member of DU and had only 100 posts. Is there a magic number where a person can post without being questioned as being a freeper?

It's such an awkward conversation, isn't it?

You're right, madam.

The primitives at that campfire all appear to be congregated here too, reading this.

52. Congress didn't have a budget
   
I guess Steny Hoyer lied when he said that there wasn't going to be a budget because they felt that they had to wait until after the Debt Commission published its findings. The report wasn't going to come out until after the budget was due. The House, where the budget starts, wasn't going to vote on one, and he doesn't mention the reason being that a Republican filibuster. BTW, the Republican filibuster didn't stop health care reform from passing so why would it work for the budget?

Frank,

Just curious.  When you send an e-mail to Skinner, does he ever respond to you?  I would presume he doesn't but I'm just wondering.

Uh ... yeah.  It seems to be running in fits and starts.  They can't answer the question without everyone accusing them they are conserv .... uhhh republ .... moles.  The only one who really seems to be trying to fight the truth is making up words and then disappearing.

No, and I don't expect my fellow alum to, for two reasons.

Number one, he knows I would screen-capture, photobucket, and post his reply, and out of natural bashfulness, he wouldn't like that.  I'm a nice guy; I can understand shyness.

Number two, and much more important than that, by responding to me, Skins would be acknowledging franksolich's existence, which would strike terror in the hearts of the primitives; best for the primitives to imagine franksolich is just a drug-induced delusion.

But this was near the beginning, before franksolich contacted Skins about the matter.

Well, excresence.

Even though the Republicans at the campfire appear to have won the argument, the primitives having no responses to logic and reasoning and recorded fact, it appears this campfire's just going to burn itself out, with no interference by the probably-pot-smoking moderators.

I dunno why Skins lets them--the moderators--get away with it, letting Republicans win an argument.

I think you're right.  Looks like it is sinking like a stone now that the conservatives have spoken truth to power.

It was fun while it lasted.

7. They tried
 It was the Republicans in the Senate that kept blocking it...


Budget bills cannot be filibustered.

Pelosi never put up a budget bill.

Does the term "reconciliation" ring a bell?

I'd expected the campfire to be doused (locked), and the Republicans mausoleumed, but I expected wrongly.

We have to do this more often, sir.

Whenever you're up to it, give me a holler.

Well, I got out the boat and rowed over to Skins's island to see the fate of this campfire.

It's still there, although whichever primitive (or Republican) made comment #47 is no longer there.

That was one of svsuman23's posts.  I can't remember exactly what it said but it seems like it was something pretty mild.  True but mild. 

I think PeanutGallery was the ultimate demise of that thread.

Can we call a spade a spade? the Democrats refused to submit a budget before the 2010 elections, they knew they were in enough trouble with Obamacare and their spending, they didn't want to chance the budget coming out and taking more of a beating. It didn't work!
