Moderate America

[woofer]

It's never been fun for me bashing the Republicans, but I have to because I despise most of what they stand for....which is basically tax cuts for the rich, a fend-for-yourself mentality, and a make-money-at-all-costs without restrictions.

I like what Representative Boyd says in this article.....

The whole budget gives you sticker shock, obviously,” says Rep. Alan Boyd (D) of Florida, a key member of the conservative Blue Dog caucus, who voted for the budget resolution.

“But again that’s the honesty of this budget. None of the Bush budgets were honest. He’d send them up here without war costs in them … without estate taxes, without all those things we knew we’d do,” he added.

Obama gets budget passed. Fast? Yes. Bipartisan? Nope
The House and Senate both approved budget resolutions of about $3.5 trillion, backing key Obama priorities such as green energy and healthcare reform.
