House Passes Three Week Spending Bill

The Senate has just rejected the budget bill that passed the Republican majority House, 44 to 56, with 60 votes needed for passage.
The vote generally went along party lines, but three conservative Senators (Rand Paul, Jim DeMint, and Mike Lee) voted against the bill, presumably because they think the spending cuts don’t go far enough.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

Do you think Democrats will ever even get half as serious as the Republicans? Okay, okay, stop laughing! :)

Thanks for the laughter Deborah ;-)

Our Tea Party Senator Jim DeMint:
"We have a Congress that, instead of addressing the issue of a trillion-and-a-half dollars [the current estimate of the deficit], is debating between $61 billion and $6 billion,” said DeMint. “These are fractional. You cannot even see the line here of what is being proposed by our Democratic colleagues."
The Tea Party Rebellion Escalates.
Carpe Diem.
