No2 in you lame quest to prove you have no idea what is real vs what you think, you skipped right over the law. There is a law, passed in the mid 70's and still in effect today, that prevents filibusters on budget resolutions in the US Senate. But expecting you to be truthful is reaching too far.

RhetoricAndFalderal said, "Then the democrat echo machine will blame congress for stone walling instead of being honest about the failures of the Dem leadership in the US Senate; Harry Reid."

You almost got this one right, Raffy, if not for you still being blinded by your partisanship. The Democrats and Republicans have used the 60 vote filibuster rule as an excuse for not passing controversial issues (as in issues that would take votes away from them at election time). At ANY time, under rules of the Senate, a SIMPLE MAJORITY of the Senate could vote to change the number of Senators required to invoke cloture. Neither the Democrats OR Republicans have been willing to do this in recent history. The reason is quite clear. Both parties prefer gridlock and the ability to blame the other party for filibustering. They bank on the potential political advantages they feel gridlock may give them at election time. But don't worry, the economic elitists continue to receive hundreds of billions of dollars handed over to them despite the filibusters. There's always a way found to do that.

analert-True Demey methink-me think I'm right cause I checked my posts and me think you're wrong because I might remember some of yours. If I protest I am innocence I must be guilty, if I say nothing,that proves my guilt. You said "Your blogs come up, in my mind, as not based on any reality so I then assume personal feelings, hence racism." All politics starts personal, what happens next becomes reality, hence no racism? You claim in your name to be an alert citizen but are just a shill for the Democratic hate machine,mindlessly puking up the same old lies hoping some of the stink will stick. Well it worked-it stuck to you.

Alert...how wrong you are to paint us all with a racist brush. As far as Obama, I don't care what color he is, IMO he is a politician first, caring mostly about campaigning and returning to another 4 years of golf and expensive vacations.He finally is proposing a budget because it's an election year. I bet you and I could agree on some budget items. How about the entitlement reform which Obama hasn't even brought up? IMO we should means test for social security, take away the ceiling for payroll deductions, have higher deductibles for Medicare. Paul Ryan had some ideas for starting points but Obama and the Dems ravaged him rather starting a dialogue for changes. Like I said its either Obama' ideas or the highway. Income tax reform would be another place to agree on. Instead of Obama raking those companies who pay little or no taxes over the coals, why not change the tax rules instead of criticizing them for their legal tax deductions.

The president can plan anything he wants. For the past three years the leader of the US Senate has failed to put a national budget up for a vote so nothing will get done. Then the democrat echo machine will blame congress for stone walling instead of being honest about the failures of the Dem leadership in the US Senate; Harry Reid.

I just checked my past blogs and other than my baiting fedup- I'm usually pretty nice. Methinks thou dost protest ( your innocence)to much.Your blogs come up, in my mind, as not based on any reality so I then assume personal feelings, hence racism.

analert-You said this on another blog-"I can't help myself and don't usually personally attack but feduptaxerpayer- you are truly truly moronic.Stop blogging and go get yourself some sort of education or, if not that, mental help." Then you have the ignorance to tell us-"You are racists". You should take your own advise. Just about all your posts have personal attacks. If anyone is racist it is you.I thought Good American was the biggest fool on here but you have beaten him. I challenge you to go thru all my posts and show me ONE that implies I don't like Obama because of his race. It would take a warped mind to get anything racial out of any of them.

Freedom of speech its everyone's right to say and type what they feel, onto elections and let the people be heard!!!

Darlene isnt a racist, not at all. Just a parrot!! Certainly not reasonable in any way!!

@donnaw and others like her- (kaysbrew, fedup, poorrichhard, libertybelle, etc.) (I exclude wislady because I don't think she is like this): Most of the rational people on these blogs recognize that you really don't have a political philosphy, you have a deep seated racial bias that won't allow you to support anything the current President does. I don't support everything he does either, in fact, I almost fired him last summer but I appreciate that he wants what is best for this country. You are very transparent in you posts about your real fears. You are racists.

donnaw.... I have a feeling you would vote against his picture, let alone a proposal of any kind.
Why don't you just spit it out......... church is open tommorow.

ddr..so not doing anything for fear of a no vote in the House is reason for not proposing a budget? During the campaign wasn't Obama saying he would unify this country and work with the opposition? The budget would have been a good start. But it's either his way or the highway.

You mean the budget the republicans keep stonewalling? The reason Obama has not done more is because the republicans vote against every single thing. Add all kinds of junk to the bills and signed pledges not to raise tax on the rich so can not balance the budget. Doing whatever it takes to make Obama look bad. But it is only making them look like a bunch of babies.

Sarah...if he had focused on these issues and the economy instead of the holy grail of the liberal Obamacare during the early years of his admi instruction we would be further along in the recovery. Wasted time. We are paying for it now.

It was due February 6th, but was delayed until "some time next week".

More and more spending paid for how...? More taxes.

How about getting a budget done......1020 days and counting.

What a bunch of lies from the father of lies.
