Hot Damn! A GOP Budget Plan!

Yesterday I was watching the Obama Virtual Town Hall and listening to his answers to the questions that he was asked.  All in all it was a very interesting meeting.  But about 3/4 of the way through the town hall there was a breaking story interruption.

“GOP unveils a budget proposal”.  This caught my attention because for weeks I had been bad mouthing the GOP for their massive criticism with NO alternative offered.  I sat up straight and grabbed my note pad.

The usual suspects took to the mic, Boner, sorry, I mean Boehner, Cantor and the rest of the gang of NO stepped forward and gave their little speech.  And each talked with theor own flowery vocabulary and said basically what the NRCC has told them to say….Obama’s Budget….spends too much…taxes too much and borrows too much.  While none used those exact words….the same thought was there.

They talked and they talked and not once did I hear the “new” proposal…what I heard was the tired old mantras of tax cuts…domestic oil drilling…yada yada.  Basically, it was the typical Obama budget bashing session.  Nothing new.  But then there has been NOTHING new coming from the GOP.

We will have to wait until next Wednesday, when the House GOP presents their “new” proposal on the floor of the House.

I am still trying to figure out just what part of their ramblings would be breaking news….I am thinking that maybe they should have just called it what it was….REDUNDANT NEWS FROM THE GOP.
