How the hell can you govern (or attempt anything) with no budget?

From the republicans:
Cancelled: There Will Be No Congressional Budget This Year
***The Following Is An Important Fiscal Health Announcement***

Washington (Jun 22)

In light of House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer's (D-MD) announcement this morning that House Democrats will not pass a budget this year - failing to fulfill what he has called "the most basic responsibility" of governing - the following important fiscal health warning has been issued:

THE BUDGET HAS BEEN

CANCELLED

WE REGRET TO INFORM YOU THAT


THE CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET

PLANNED FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011 HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO WASHINGTON DEMOCRATS' OUT-OF-CONTROL SPENDING SPREE.

AN APOLOGY FOR THIS BETRAYAL OF AMERICAN TAXPAYERS DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE FORTHCOMING AT THIS TIME.

BE ADVISED THAT THE FOLLOWING SERVICES WILL BE INTERRUPTED:


Imposing the fiscal discipline economists say is needed to create jobs and boost our economy

Reining in the out-of-control spending spree that is killing American jobs

Carrying out the "most basic responsibility of governing"

Stopping middle-class tax hikes that will sock family budgets at the worst possible time

Providing the leadership on jobs and the economy that Americans say is sorely lacking

Protecting our kids and grandkids from the enormous debt burden Washington has placed on them

We reserve the right to notify you of additional consequences that may arise in light of this budget failure, which is unprecedented in the modern era. In the interim, please brace for more spending, more debt, more tax hikes, more broken promises.

For families and small businesses looking for a government that listens to the people it serves and respects their hard-earned money, House Republicans are offering
better solutions to cut spending now and help small businesses put people back to work.

Well that there's some serious CHANGE for ya! And they probably HOPE that with all the other shit going on, nobody will even notice.

Zero-The-Joker will surely go down in history as the president who firmly re-established, in the hearts and minds of every man, woman, and child, the earth-shattering wisdom embodied in the simple saying: BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.

balance the budget.. tax the rich..

the following link will take you to this link .. 'Who Rules America: Wealth, Income, and Power'

the top --- 1%---- richest hold 42% of America's wealth.. the bottom 80% holds --- 7%---- that is why the economy sux.. no money goes around.

my mother said during the Great Depression there was just..no money... there was work, but no one had a dime to pay wages. same thing today.. the Rich sucked it all up.. stuck it in off shore accounts to hide it.. those stats are using only the money on shore. it is actually a lot worse

We are firmly already in the beginning of a bloodless revolution being perpetrated by the left before our unbelieving eyes.

Don't be surprised at what they may do to keep in power now that they have tasted it.

Anyone who believes that THEIR (the revolutionaries) riches will be taxed a penny for any of this is on crack.
