FY2010 is over on 30 September 2010. That's next week.
There was a 2010 budget.
The 2011 is not approved; rarely is there a budget approved before the end of 1QFY.
Oooh, and there was the time the the Rs refused to pass the budget and they shut down the government, or did you forget?
I know a little about this because it's part of my job.
The US Federal Budget for 2010 was released today, February 26,2009. Which was NEVER signed by Congress.
Seeing that the democrats have no positive achievements
for the last two years to run on
Normalcy is just the start to what I'd call common sense
you can't find what you don't look for. check out the accomplishments thread I started on Obama... there were 100 items on it. the accomplishments are long. despite your desire for failure.
In a rapid fire rate Obama has passed a staggering amount of legislation. Now if he will only end the war and create a green industry.

Nothing says success to a liberal/progressive like staggering amounts of legislation.
"Contract with American II" - when will these sorry Pubs learn? Same old, tired rhetoric. Pubs don't know how to govern, don't know a thing about balancing a budget, running an economy, residing over an effective government. Their methods are set in stone and their minds are as nimble as a slab of rock. Nothing knew from this immobile, regressive bunch.
So, you think Bill Clinton balanced the budget? Really???
No, it was the Republican controlled House of Reps, with Newts Contract with America, to be accountable.
We've had 10 years of the same failed policies( 8 from Bush, 2 of the same under Obama, not to mention Clinton), so we've got to do something different. Cutting spending is now unavoidable. Closing the borders to illegals is also unavoidable, at least politically for both parties. People are demanding jobs and there aren't enough to spare for illegals.
Obama may barricade himself in the White House and say " No No No." but nobody will be paying him much attention.
Here is the content of the Republican Pledge to America just released:
"the specific agenda items are lumped into five categories: (1) create jobs and promote economic growth, (2) cut spending and balance the budget, (3) repeal and replace Obamacare, (4) promote national and border security, (5) enact procedural legislative reforms to promote good governance."
There is a link on the page so you can read the full text and the article summarizes each item. It is very specific on EXACTLY what they plan to do, should they win. The "spending" related ones are particularly interesting.
Same **** different day. Cut taxes, reduce government oversight, do whatever possible to limit abortion.
Basically cater to the needs of the rich and try to tell people how to run their lives based on Christian principles.
