Second time the Senate with a Democrat majority has voted unanimously against one of his budgets. What a record.

99-0 Is this the second or third time this has happened in the Senate? This is beginning to smell like the democRATs and repubs (inside the Senate) have inside information and none of them want to be held responsible for holding inside information on the current economic situation away from the American public. Don’t know exactly what to think ... though 99-0 speaks volumes.

Thanks Evil Slayer.
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... Democrats disputed that it was actually the president's plan, arguing that the slim amendment didn't actually match Mr. Obama's budget document... 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.
That's because they're liars.

This would seem to be pretty good political fodder for Romney.

I suspect brainiac ‘PLUGS’ was there to cast the deciding vote in case or a tie....

I think that this is the second year for a Senate vote with none voting in favor.

Thanks, for the info. Looks bad ... watching the videos. Dang, should have yelled louder when President Reagan was in office. Appears to be later than first thought. Suspected such but the videos bring it home.

Kabiki theater, folks. Obama and the Dems have NO intention of passing a budget. Obama intends to continue "ruling" by fiat and directive with a seemingly endless pot of money. Because they think the money pot IS endless. In their minds it's those evil rich white men who stole it from everybody else.
