What country are you folks talking about????

CONGRESS WRITES the budget - the President ONLY submits ideas...

CONGRESS PASSES the budget - the President ONLY signs, or vetos, it...

CONGRESS PORKS the budget - the President ONLY asks for ... whatever he does...he does...Congress has to APPROVE it before it can be done...

Clinton DIDN'T BALANCE ANYTHING - CONGRESS DID IT, THEN "UN-DID" IT...
Kennedy, Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan, Bush I., Clinton & Bush II. are as responsible for the health of the economy as all nine of them were responsible for the " 1929 Crash"...

And we, the citizens, are as close to Congress as the next voting booth...quit yer' *****in' and finger pointing...vote the real bastards out if you think your paycheck sucks, your 401(k) is tanking and your next loaf of split-top buttered wheat costs as much as your next gallon of liberal-smelling-tree-huggin'-eco'85...-

Bush II. didn't butter it or mandate it...

Your friendly, neighborhood CONGRESS MAN (PERSON...WHATEVER) did.

And that folks, is the facts.

Congress, White House, all the same family.

I was referring to the current President's choice of words, articulation and intention to make us believe things that definitely aren't as he says.

I agree, Congress is even more a whore for lobbies than the White House inmates.

As far as your and others "voting philosophy" ... they, (whoever 'they' are) will get who they want. It's easier than ever to rig elections these days.
