And again, I disagree. The economy is the most important issue to Americans, but do you really think that the dems give a damn one way or another about a passing a budget? You can count on nothing but a continuing resolution, just like we had in the last few days, but there will be no budget passed by this Congress. They have the liberal agenda to advance, and that is their number one priority.
Certainly, it is their leaders' agenda. But I really don't think they can get there from here. We've already seen some significant defections from the cause. And, so far, the Republicans have stood firm.
“do you really think that the dems give a damn one way or another about a passing a budget? “
The GOP Senators all 42 of em said NO cloture votes on anything else until the budget is done. So... the GOP is making the Dems give a damn. I dont see the lame duck session doing anything but the budget and taxes. All the other items are in limbo and time is running out.
