Reasonable To Go 800 Days With No Budget, But Unreasonable To Live Within Means? As was widely reported yesterday, each and every U.S. Senate Republican is standing in full support of a common-sense Balanced Budget Amendment that would finally put our federal government back on a road to fiscal sanity – and against President Obama and the Democrats’ demands for more deficit spending and job-killing tax hikes. As a candidate in 2006, Claire McCaskill (D-MO) told Missourians she was in favor of a balanced budget, routinely casting herself as a proponent of fiscal responsibility. But in Washington, it has been nearly 800 days since McCaskill and her fellow Senate Democrats passed any budget, much less a balanced budget – and during that time our national debt has grown by a whopping $3.1 trillion. Now, as Missourians continue to demand that Washington get its reckless spending and debt under control, McCaskill…
As Republicans Seek A Balanced Budget Amendment, Amy Klobuchar Demand New Tax Hikes, Wasteful Spending
Walks In Lockstep With D.C. Party Bosses, Against Minnesotans’ Interests It’s been more than 790 days since liberal U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and her fellow Senate Democrats passed a federal budget – during which time our national debt has exploded to a record-high $14.3 trillion. But as Senate Republicans today propose – and unanimously support – a common-sense Balanced Budget Amendment to finally bring Washington’s spending and debt under control, Klobuchar is standing instead with Al Franken and her D.C. party bosses in calling for new job-killing tax hikes and yet another round of wasteful “stimulus” spending. Notably, as a candidate for U.S. Senate in 2006 Klobuchar criticized Washington’s spending habits and even supported a balanced budget. But since arriving in the Senate, Klobuchar has broken her promise to Minnesotans, joining her liberal Democrat colleagues as they continue to abdicate their basic responsibility to pass a federal budget. “In…

But since arriving in the Senate, Menendez has done the exact opposite – running up the taxpayer credit card and joining his Democrat colleagues as they continue to abdicate their basic responsibility to pass…

Why Doesn’t Menendez Agree With Fellow Senate Dem That More Spending & Tax Hikes Should Be Off The Table?
Again Stands For Tax-Spend-And-Borrow Agenda In Washington With our national debt already topping a record $14.3 trillion, tax-hiking U.S. Senator Bob Menendez (D-NJ) – who is the only sitting Senator under investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice – is standing once again with the left wing of the Democrat party in Washington as they continue to put crucial debt negotiations at risk with their insistence on more wasteful spending and job-killing tax hikes. Meanwhile, even some of Menendez’s fellow Democrats are beginning to join Republican calls to take these harmful proposals off the table, including U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV). As Politico reports: Manchin, who is a top GOP target in next year’s elections, has said he will not vote to raise the debt ceiling without spending reforms, and sides with the Republicans on keeping tax raises off the table. “I don’t believe in tax hikes,” Manchin said. “We…
