Yeah ?

What year does the Democratic Senate plan on passing a budget ?

Like pigs at a trough. Spend. Borrow. Spend.

Democrat's care so much about their kids -- that they are going to pass on debt that will never be able to be paid off.

It's a good start but it will never see the Senate floor.... At least not until 2013

Another typical GOP "Screw the poor! They can go to hell! As long as the rich keep getting their handouts, we're OK!"

I'm disgusted by the "over 10 years" plan that keeps popping up in legislation. It takes 1 year to spend it but 10 years to save it. This crap has to stop.

Like clockwork, there it is. Obama loves you Tempest. He doesn't need to lie when he's got voters like you who have his back at every turn.

Nobody will miss it, I guarentee you. We could triple that figure and nobody will go hungry.

Like clockwork, the radical right can only resort to personal attacks, rather than address stone cold facts

Gee, cuts after they had a nationwide contest to see which state could sign up the most people on foodstamps so they could get bonus money ?
