That's what they say in the South when they are doing their damndest not to insult someone.

Point is that your reference to the Congressional Budget Act of 1974 was purposely misleading. Either that, or you don't understand what "end of a fiscal year" means. You don't vote on a budget at the end of the fiscal year.

Where in the act does it say that it can only be used at the end of the fiscal year, which is October 1?  That may have been it's purpose but it never really worked, they just put off passing a budget longer when they pushed back the end of the year from July 1.

One m,ore thing ..... October is the first day of the fiscal year, not the end.

We should require that all voters take a literacy test.

  Oh boy, one more law to restrict voting.  The last state to pass the voter ID law, when asked how many people had been prosecuted in the last 3 years for voter fraud, the answer was, NONE!

  I wonder now many people who can't read or write votes.  I would like to know, l'll bet bet it not many.  You got any idea.    Yep, we need another law on the books.

OK, I concede, and for the record I know that Oct.1 is the beginning not the end of the fiscal year.

Don't know about people who can't read or write but I have been at the polls when a blind person voted. The ballot was read to them.

  Hey, maybe we should keep blind people from voting, they can't see who they are voting for.

I've tried for 3 days to follow the logic of the one who started this thread, but I simply can't.  It simply doesn't make any sense.

It's as simple as this.  We are no longer the go to country...our currency is no good.  Troll blames it on Bush and starts with crap that went on in Congress that we only have the dems word for because everything important was done behind closed doors with no press allowed.  There is no budget and you start making excuses as to why which are nonsense.  The US is suddenly looked at as a wishy washy country with an uncertain direction and going downhill fast period.

The budget is a red herring where this topic is concerned. The repugnican stalling and very public blustering are the root cause of this event.
