Tag: 1000 DaysBy JGillman, Section Multimedia
By golly, by May 26th 2011, Michigan had a new budget. In fact it was done in only 140 plus days!
The prevaricator in chief's SOTU pandering last night marked 1000 days since Debbie Stabenow and Carl Levin helped the US Senate pass a budget. 1000 days since considerations for the limited resources that government is supposed to operate under have been made. Debbie Stabenow, and Carl Levin, fully 5% or one twentieth of the problem that is Democrats controlling the US senate, have made no attempts to demonstrate the leadership necessary for good government.
I'll give Michigan's two US senators some credit. They certainly cannot be blind to the fact that failure to pass a 'limiting' budget means escalating debt and loss of control with federal spending. They could not be THAT inane. However, even Carl Levin and Debbie Stabenow know the government under a bureaucracy growing president like Obama cannot operate within a budget. Its why they don't bother. This severe lack of leadership foretells great misery for our future generations. For Michigan, and the Nation's future, they really need to go. (1 comment) Comments >> |
