House Voted 414-0 Rejected Obama budget

[steveox]

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Republican-run House has overwhelmingly rejected President Barack Obama's $3.6 trillion budget for next year after a vote forced by GOP lawmakers to embarrass Democrats.

Republicans have opposed Obama's budget all year, criticizing its tax increases on the wealthy and saying it lacks sufficient spending cuts.

Democrats have defended Obama's budget priorities but they largely voted "no" Wednesday night.
Republicans said Democrats were afraid to vote for Obama's proposed tax increases and extra spending for energy and welfare. Democrats said Republicans had forced a vote on a version of Obama's budget that contained only its numbers, not the policies he would use to achieve them.
The vote was 414-0.

The vote came as the House debated a GOP budget that contains far more deficit reduction than Obama has proposed.

The Democrats are scared shit of the Tea Party people! Its all about this years elections. Remember OWS protesters? Its doesnt have an effect on republicans. Both protesters do have a point. Tea Party people want politicans stop raising taxes and raising spending cost. OWS people want the Rich and Bankers to pay their fair share. They want corperations to hire more people. OWS want Jobs. Tea Party people have a huge effect on the elerctions then OWS people do.

TAXED
ENOUGH
ALREADY

Can you believe that? 414 to ZERO!!! Now that is what I call real bi-partisanship.

I wonder if ANY of the lib TV networks will tell their viewers of this vote. I kinda doubt it.

And remember last year the Senate voted on BO's budget and it went down 97-0. I bet the lib nets did not report it either.

If BO is so great, why do his budget proposals receive ZERO yes votes?

 

[steveox]

BE AFRAID!

BE VERY AFRAID!!!

LOL....even his own party won't vote for it. You would think a few die hard supporters would. That makes me think that none of them, even Obama doesn't want a budget. They would prefer to get their funding through temp extensions of the debt ceiling. They don't want to change the status quo. How can they possibly be out of money anyway, when they still have more checks left in their check book?

Did anyone read the story that America is about to have the highest corporate tax rate in the world? Bet that will just bring companies and jobs flooding back here.

The deficit is like the checkbook. If you are out of checks just print some more. The debt isa like money in the bank that backs up checks in the checkbook. Putting more checks in the checkbook does not solve the problem of a lack of funds in the bank to pay for all the checks being written.

Ignorance does not make people look smart. Ignorance and misrepresentations of facts exposes the flaws in those given over to those suffering from the handicap. Presidents are not authorized to budget the spending of US money, the US House budgets the spending, and the President must either sign the proposals or not, depending on how greatly he wants to achieve bipartisanship on spending issues.

Here are the spending increases by the House by year with the political party in power over the House at the time overseeing the budgeting:

2000 - R	$5,674	55%
2001 - R	$5,807	55%
2002 - R	$6,228	57%
2003 - R	$6,783	59%
2004 - R	$7,379	60%
2005 - R	$7,933	61%
2006 - R	$8,507	61%
2007 - D	$9,008	62%
2008 - D	$10,025	68%
2009 - D	$11,910	82%
2010 - D	$13,562	90%
2011 - D	$14,790	95%
2012 - R	$16,066	99%
2013 - R	$16,738	99%
2014 - R	$17,824	101%
2015 - R	$18,151	100%
2016 - R	$19,573	105%
2017 - R	$20,245	104%
2018 - R	$21,516	105%
2019 - R	$22,719	107%
2020 - R	$27,748	129%
2021 - D	$29,617	124%
2022 - D	$30,824	123%

The current debt stands at $32 trillion, due to budgets passes by a Democrat House.

Let's summarize:
1. Republicans inherited a debt of $4.974 trillion when they regained control of the House in 1995.
2. When Democrats regained control of the House in 2007 they inherited a debt of $8.507 trillion, meaning the Republican rise in the debt over the period under their control amounted to an increase of $3.533 trillion in 11 years.
3. When Republicans regained control of the House in 2011 they inherited a debt of $14.790 trillion, representing a Democrat debt increase of $6.283 trillion in 5 years while under their control.
4. When Democrats regained control of the House in 2019 they inherited a debt of $22.719 trillion, representing a Republican debt increase of $7.929 trillion in 8 years while under their control.
5. Our current debt is $32 trillion, representing a Democrat debt increase of $9.3 trillion in less than 4 years under their control.

The summary of debt increases by political party from 1996 until the present:

Democrats raised the debt more than $15.58 trillion in less than 7 years while in control.
Republicans raised the debt less than $10.83 trillion in 19 years under their control.

Facts do not lie.
