:-) It's the talking point we've heard for the past two years. Will this summer be any different from last? Doubtful. #teamplayers

Maybe this summer will be different and Obama will actually present a budget :)

Looks like Obama is taking his re-election campaign to the demilitarized zone between North and South Korea.
This is nothing more than a cheap campaign trick that will cost the country millions that it can't afford.

Don't you mean the Senate? I'm pretty sure Obama has delivered a budget every year.

You do mean the House Republicans are posturing, right?

Just checking.

The House Budget for 2013 should really be called Ryan 2.0

What an awful plan Ryan has offered.

The story you linked lays it out fairly well. Revenue-neutral tax cuts? We are back in Laffer Curve fantasy land.

The IRS calls it a 1040 Form because, for every 50 dollars you make, you get 10 and they get 40.

1/3 of all tax revenue in the US, goes to the Welfare state. Where has that got us?

Link?

That cannot be right. Off hand this was the first link I could find. From 2007 though.

Under Social Safety Net section

"All types of aid to the needy -- Medicaid, housing subsidies, aid to poor families with children (welfare, which accounts for about 1 percent of the budget), food stamps, school lunches and so on, plus unemployment benefits -- account for about 16 percent of the budget."

Kind of curious who that is, but I'm headed back to the baseball section.

"I heard a congressman say that this morning on public radio."

Well that's enough proof for me.

Of course with most of the wars over, it's probably not too far from the truth.

It's accurate if you include Social Security. The congresscritter probably did not want to make that explicit, as it would mess up his whole point.
