Even forgetting about the fact that Democratic Congresses wrote all of those budgets, as I proved to you, America is going to make you pay for what you are doing to our grandchildren.

Where do you wingnuts get your information?

Senate Rejects Paul Ryan Budget

Idiot thats the wrong budget. That's not the one that no one voted to support.

The link is in response to those who have said that Reid would not allow a GOP House budget to be debated and voted on in the Senate. Well, he did, and it did not pass.

I thought the argument for the past year was that the republican house didn't have a budget?

Lahkota is obfuscating, of course. He knows the problem is that Harry Reid wipes his ass with his Constitutional requirement to write a Senate budget and pass it.

Only the purely brain dead would be unaware of the Paul Ryan Budget. Have you never heard of it?

This was NOT President Obama's budget. You wingnuts need to read the details.

Lakhota's right

This was NOT President Obama's budget. You wingnuts need to read the details.

Are you disagreeing with ABC?
The White House today reacted to news that representations of President Obama’s budget had been voted down by the House and Senate by decrying the introduction of the amendments, by Republicans, as “gimmicks.”

You didn't read the last part of your link:


“This is the president’s budget,” said the top Democrat on the Senate Budget Committee, Sen. Kent Conrad of South Dakota, indicating the voluminous budget proposal President Obama offered. “This is what Sen. Sessions has presented as being the president’s budget,” he said, indicating the much slimmer document.

“I think it’s readily apparent there is a big difference between the president’s budget, which I hold in my hands, and what Sen. Sessions has presented as being the president’s budget. This is not the president’s budget. So, of course, we’re not going to support it. It’s not what the president proposed.”
The White House official said the Sessions and Mulvaney’s bills were mere GOP stunts to get Democrats on record opposing ‘the President’s budget’” as well as distracting from what the House Republican budget would do, which the official described as “protect(ing) massive tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires while making the middle class and seniors pay.”

Would obama's figures which is in the budget be obama's budget?

No Budget Dingy Harry....

Epic Failure. And that's an understatement.

'President Obama's budget suffered a second embarrassing defeat Wednesday, when senators voted 99-0 to reject it.

Coupled with the House's rejection in March, 414-0, that means Mr. Obama's budget has failed to win a single vote in support this year.'

"A stunning development for the president of the United States in his fourth year in office," Mr. Sessions said of the unanimous opposition.'

The OP's Post, your comment:

This was NOT President Obama's budget. You wingnuts need to read the details.

Maybe you need to read it.

From the Article:

"But Republicans said they used all of the president's numbers in the proposal, so it faithfully represented his plan."

"Sen. Jeff Sessions, Alabama Republican, even challenged Democrats to point out any errors in the numbers and he would correct them — a challenge no Democrats took up."

You fail again, Lakhota

Holy shit, you are stupid. Even using the same total numbers, a 50-page budget can be VASTLY different that a 2000-page budget. The devil was in the lack of details in the wingnut con job. In short - it was NOT Obama's budget. Get real...

I quoted from the OP's article showing your response was wrong when you said "This was NOT President Obama's budget"

You fail Twice...

As per law, Obama has submitted a budget for each fiscal year he’s been president — fiscal years 2010, 2011 and 2012, according to a quick check on the Government Printing Office’s website, where the documents are posted. It’s as simple as that.

Yes, Obama submitted the 2013 budget (and 2010-2011-2012 too)

2010? There was no budget passed in 2010.

I am sure Democrats will try and Claim it was Blocked by the Republican Minority.

While the Sessions and Mulvaney bills put forward the same topline numbers as those in the president’s budget, neither offered any specifics. The Sessions legislation was 56 pages long; actual budgets are closer to 2,000 pages long.

Thus, a White House official said, the Sessions proposal was a “shell that could be filled with a number of things that could hurt our economy and hurt the middle class,” a White House official said.

So, the exact same numbers in both budgets... but only the GOP numbers would harm the economy

The Senate voted down Obama's budget. Here is the resolution, with excerpt:

112TH CONGRESS
2D SESSION
S. CON. RES. 41
Setting forth the President’s budget request for the United States Government
for fiscal year 2013, and setting forth the appropriate budgetary levels
for fiscal years 2014 through 2022.
IN THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES
APRIL 17, 2012
Mr. SESSIONS submitted the following concurrent resolution; which was referred to the Committee on the Budget; committee discharged pursuant
to Section 300 of the Congressional Budget Act; placed on the calendar
CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
Setting forth the President’s budget request for the United
States Government for fiscal year 2013, and setting forth
the appropriate budgetary levels for fiscal years 2014
through 2022.

They are resolving to adopt the President's budget.

And the Senate laughed the President's budget out, unanimously, just like they did in the House.


Epic Failure.

Correct because Obama does not have the Balls to put his Name on a Real Budget. Than he would have to Defend it.

No, the devil was in the LACK of details - exactly how funds are allocated. Using your logic, why not just submit ONE bottom line total number.

Ok, so if the GOP submits something with a lack of details, that's bad... but when Obama does it, no worries. Got it.

Obama's budget is around 2,000 pages. The Sessions amendment was around 50 pages.
