On the page of House Republican Leader Rep. John Boehner:
I say, "So what?" We haven't had a federal budget for at least three years, we've had a financial fantasy that bore no relationship to economic sense or spending. The Congress spends throughout the year with no restraint and no regard to the "budget," anyway, except to see how much they can bust it.
I'm not being snarky here. I'm serious. It does not matter whether the government publishes a budget. The Congress is going to spend whatever it wants, anyway. In fact, there is an upside for the Dems: with no budget, there won't be a deficit. There will certainly be more debt, but the Dems will be able to say they did not break the budget. No deficit spending! Yea!
The other upside for the Dems is that no budget means they can bury their spending and conceal it from public view. Did you scoff at those who called the $20 billion
