The people of Nevada had the chance to vote out Harry Reid. Unfortunately, they would have had to replace him with Sharron Angle. They were kind enough not to subject the US to her. As with presidential elections, if the Republicans ever present a worthwhile candidate, they may win important elections.

Actually, they’ve passed budgets. That’s why the government is still running. This is a right-wing non-issue.

Senators haven’t made a budget for these reasons:
1. They can’t get 60 votes.
2. No use proposing anything, getting the opposition upset because see #1.
3. Republicans continue to obstruct everything.

“Senators haven’t made a budget for these reasons”
One would think this is the first time America has ever had a divided congress in it’s 237 year history. Obviously it isn’t, but the difference could be that magical process called “compromise” that neither party want’s to subscribe to.

There was a clip on msnbc that showed President Obama saying that after he agreed to something the Republicans proposed, seven of them changed their minds and were against it.
I don’t remember anything like that in my lifetime.

But a worthwhile candidate would be too smart to be a Republican. Meanwhile, Bok’s judge looks an awful lot like Karl Rove.

CA has a balanced budget…they just CLAIM the income will be enough to cover what ever they want to spend.

So the Republicans obstruct anything the Democrats propose, but the Democrats are willing to pass anything the Republicans propose?

No. The Dems draw the line at fiscal insanity(the bread and butter of the GOP whackos).

LOL, I’m glad you recognized my post was sarcasm and you replied in same. Thanks for making my point.

the House under GOP leadership has passed a budget each year, but the Senate under Democrat leadership has refused.
They even refuse to bring the House budgets to a vote.
What they pass are “continuing resolutions”…not true Budgets, Rodney!
(the Obama budgets were voted down in the Senate by almost unanimous vote counts!)
The Law requires many things that the Democrat regime ignores and violates. I agree with Masterskrain’s “IF ONLY”!
The Feds are the most unaccountable elected jobholders in the country….while piling onerous burdens by law on all the rest of us voters and taxpayers! I’m disgusted, as ever!

More like Mitch McConnell filibustering his own bill after Harry Reid called his bluff and brought it up for a vote.
