The White House has delayed for at least a month the release of its mid-year budget review, the Associated Press reports. Conveniently, that’s after Congress is scheduled to leave for recess. So just as the Obama administration embarks on a campaign to arm-twist Senators and Representatives to rush through (in three weeks!) health care legislation that would overhaul one-sixth of the nation’s economy, the administration is delaying the release of a report that will highlight what a fiscal mess we’re in.
