Goes MIA After Failing To Pass Budget For 800 Days WASHINGTON — As U.S. Senate Republicans unite behind a common-sense Balanced Budget Amendment and call for urgent bipartisan negotiations to finally bring Washington’s spending and debt under control, liberal U.S. Senator Bob Casey (D-PA) chose instead to jet to a ritzy partisan fundraiser with President Barack Obama, joining in Obama’s refusal to engage in bipartisan budget talks as he echoes his Washington party bosses’ calls for new job-killing tax hikes and yet another round of wasteful “stimulus” spending. As the Post-Gazette’s Daniel Malloy noted last night on Twitter, “According to pool report, @SenBobCasey flew with Obama to Philly and hung with him at water ice shop before heading to fundraiser.” Meanwhile, President Obama made it clear at last night’s fundraiser that he can always count on his “great friend” Bob Casey to toe the line for his liberal partisan agenda:…
After Failing To Pass Any Budget For More Than Two Years, McCaskill Wonders If Balancing Budget Is “Reasonable”
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…

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 as Senate Republicans today propose – and unanimously support – a common-sense Balanced Budget Amendment to finally bring Washington’s spending and debt under control, Menendez is instead calling for new job-killing tax hikes and yet another round of wasteful “stimulus” spending on the backs of New Jersey’s middle class. Notably, as a candidate for U.S. Senate in 2006 Menendez routinely presented himself as a proponent of fiscal responsibility. 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…
