Ironically, this would be the greatest news story evah, if it actually meant that Congress were going to stop spending for a year.  But it means nothing of the sort.  More than $3.6 trillion will still be spent, Democrats are merely avoiding an official budget out of fear for their political lives this November.  Word games and semantics are alive on Capitol Hill, meanwhile our nation is choking on debt as we focus on becoming Greece as quickly and seamlessly as possible.

I've said it since day one -- the Washington Spending Machine controls both parties, and until Republicans have the political courage to propose a deficit solution involving deep spending cuts to entitlements and the Pentagon War Machine, they will remain equally at fault with Democrats for our fiscal ruin. 

And don't kid yourselves, annual $1.5 trillion deficits will ruin this nation.  Wait until Treasury yields spike as Greenspan warned last week, and the cost of servicing $14 trillion in federal debt skyrockets.  By that point it will be too late as interest on the debt will be the majority of the discretionary spending pie. 

Even Glenn Beck gets it:

Cancelled: There Will Be No Congressional Budget This Year

Washington (Jun 22)

In light of House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer’s (D-MD) announcement this morning that House Democrats will not pass a budget this year – failing to fulfill what he has called “the most basic responsibility” of governing – the following important fiscal health warning has been issued:

THE BUDGET HAS BEEN

CANCELLED

WE REGRET TO INFORM YOU THAT


THE CONGRESSIONAL BUDGET

PLANNED FOR FISCAL YEAR 2011 HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO WASHINGTON DEMOCRATS’ OUT-OF-CONTROL SPENDING SPREE.

AN APOLOGY FOR THIS BETRAYAL OF AMERICAN TAXPAYERS DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE FORTHCOMING AT THIS TIME.

BE ADVISED THAT THE FOLLOWING SERVICES WILL BE INTERRUPTED:


Imposing the fiscal discipline economists say is needed to create jobs and boost our economy.

Reining in the out-of-control spending spree that is killing American jobs.

Carrying out the “most basic responsibility of governing.”

Stopping middle-class tax hikes that will sock family budgets at the worst possible time.

Providing the leadership on jobs and the economy that Americans say is sorely lacking.

Protecting our kids and grandkids from the enormous debt burden Washington has placed on them.

 

We reserve the right to notify you of additional consequences that may arise in light of this budget failure, which is unprecedented in the modern era.  In the interim, please brace for more spending, more debt, more tax hikes, more broken promises.

For families and small businesses looking for a government that listens to the people it serves and respects their hard-earned money, House Republicans are offering
better solutions to cut spending now and help small businesses put people back to work.
