Will House Dems say “We don’t need no steenking budgets”? — 10 Comments

  1. This is a true crisis for the left (they don’t see the need that they must be transparent, but they do realize the bills will have to be paid). Here in CT the ruling Dems cannot find their way out of our deficit box. Their attempts to impose more millionaire or bonus taxes are shown by our version of the CBO to produce much less income than they anticipate and they die.

    The Tea Parties are a sign that the tax paying class is in a state of high rebellion, although the elite suburbs may not admit it yet. I

    Every trick will be played to avoid facing the inevitable, but it will not work.

  2. “Democrats may simply decide not to pass a federal budget this year. Without a budget, an unlimited amount of taxpayer dollars can be flushed down this summer’s appropriations process. There wouldn’t have to be a floor debate allowing Republicans to highlight the vast expansion of spending under the Obama administration.”

    This may also have something to do with it.

  3. Sorry to go off topic, but I really had a good laugh over this.

    Former President Bill Clinton warned of a slippery slope from angry anti-government rhetoric to violence…”the words we use really do matter.”

    This from a convicted perjurer, the same man who told a grand jury that, “it depends on the meaning ofis.”

    The same man who looked a nation in the eye and said, “I did not have sex with that woman, Ms. Lewinski.”

    I’m sorry. I just had to share that.

  4. RE: Clinton/McVeigh. This was so predictable, and BC is reliably putting a face out there for the Democrats other than you-know-who. They yearn for their next McVeigh – it’s why 1996 wasn’t like 1994. Most credit Clinton’s move “back to the center”, but those who vote based on symbols rather than policy were energized by the OKC bombing to go out and vote against all those weird looking guys in camo holding guns and talking about liberty. If you could buy futures on the appearance of the same images through the remainder of this administration, you could make a nice penny. The future’s not exactly like the past, but it rhymes (wait for it) sometimes.

  5. Related and largely under the radar (source: Powerline): The 1408 page Financial Reform bill may come to Senate vote as early as next week. Read the Lindsey memo linked at Powerline. The bill deserves the epithet of national socialism.

  6. “Democrats may simply decide not to pass a federal budget this year. Without a budget, an unlimited amount of taxpayer dollars can be flushed down this summer’s appropriations process. There wouldn’t have to be a floor debate allowing Republicans to highlight the vast expansion of spending under the Obama administration.”

    A temporary, political expedient that will consequentially result in driving ever greater numbers of independents and moderate Democrat voters over to fiscal conservatism and the TEA Party movement.

    The Financial reform Bill is absolutely socialist in nature. Fortunately, it can be first amended in 2011 and the repealed in 2013.

    The democrats are caught between a rock and a hard place…to ‘fundamentally transform’ the country they have to cram radical legislation and change down the throats of an unwilling public. The harder they force the issue, the more they transform resistance into active hostility.

    We are witnessing a party destroying itself by charging over the political cliff’s edge of what is increasingly viewed as tyranny.

    In doing that, they are creating the conditions for public acceptance of real change, like a balanced budget amendment, the elimination of entire Fed. Dept’s like Education, Energy and the EPA and real spending cuts. And, that’s just on the fiscal front.

    The left is going to get ‘fundamental change’ just not the change they envisioned.

  7. Geoffrey, I do so hope you are correct.
    However, I am not as certain about the eventual outcome as you seem to be. Yet.
    Though I must say I am heartened by the continual growth of opposition to Obama and the hard left agenda.
