I said they would not vote against his original plan. his original plan was not the bill that made it to the floor as your own article states.
You are deliberately leaving out the context of what i said.
Jeff Sessions told the Democrats if they showed what was different between the budget brought to a vote and Obama's budget, he would ammend it. But not one Dem. could point out a difference.

Democrats disputed that it was actually the president’s plan, arguing that the slim amendment didn’t actually match Mr. Obama’s budget document, which ran thousands of pages. But Republicans said they used all of the president’s numbers in the proposal, so it faithfully represented his plan.
Sen. Jeff Sessions, Alabama Republican, even challenged Democrats to point out any errors in the numbers and he would correct them — a challenge no Democrats took up.
The Washington Post and all the other media reported it as Obama's budget getting voted down. You've been wrong over and over in the this thread. I wouldn't try to cover now by arguing over silliness.
PUH-LEASE. What a fake show from him. Bambi-boy is a joke. His salary is simply icing on the cake. His travel and food and vacations are footed on the taxpayers dollar. I'd love to see a day whe the POTUS makes no salary. Then we may get a leader who TRUELY wants to be there to work for the people.
Damned if he does, and damned if he doesn't! Wasn't it just last week you guys were saying he shouldn't have let his daughters go on a spring break trip while the country was "suffering"?????

Your link says that Sessions said it used President Obama's numbers. It does not say they came to the same conclusions which is the point.
you can read both versions of it. One is on the Budget website, the other is on the senate website.
Something that happens EVERY YEAR, under EVERY PRESIDENT, but I guess you think Obama is too incompetent to follow it through
We are talking about the House budget committee, not the Senate. because the House version of the bill is the one the article in question is talking about.
Huh. I just googled it & many other sources have that story as well. I wonder how true it is? Well, if it is, I applaud him. And to the predictable naysayers on here, nothing Obama says or does will satisfy you. He could hand over his entire salary for the rest of his presidency & you'd still be calling him an ahole so I really can't take you people seriously. Name me another president who has done this, a CEO, anyone. I can think of only the CEO of Midwest Express who took a paycut. I'm sure you applauded him for it though, right?
