John Hinderaker at Power Line<\/a> posted a story yesterday about the failure of the Democrats in Congress to put forth a budget proposal.  The article reports:<\/p>\n

\n

“With the statutory committee deadline having been missed by six weeks, and with 744 days gone by since the Democrat-led Senate passed a budget, it was reported that this week Senate Democrats would finally produce a budget and hold a markup.  But no budget was produced and the markup was delayed yet again. … [Ranking member Jeff] Sessions summarized the “big problem” facing Democrat leaders during a joint interview with House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan on Greta Van Susteren: “they cannot bring forth a budget their members support that the American people will support, and they understand that, they know that, and they’ve got a big problem.” …”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

When you vote in 2012, consider which Congressmen had the courage to make proposals and which Congressman were more interested in political gain.  If we can’t cut spending with the current Congress, they need to be unelected and a new Congress formed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
