  It all goes back to George W. and the Republican Party.  Eight years of letting the crooks of Wall Street and the Banksters loose on phony banking deals and gambling with our money.  I seems you forgot what caused this.   :rolleyes:
Troll threw this in which had nothing to do with what I was talking about in the least so don't make me out like I'm the one with no clue.  No budget for the past 3yrs, raising the debt ceiling, or wanting to every time you turn around, constantly for the past 3yrs, and excessive spending are all contributing to the instability of the dollar.  No way can that be blamed on Bush and it's getting might old and worn out.

Are you saying Obama hasn't submitted a budget?
Well, he finally did and they all turned it down so it must not have been a very good one.

And what about the 3 years part?  Are you saying this is his first budget in the last 3 years?

Lets put it this way..........the senate and Obama have yet to pass a full year budget since he has been POTUS.  Obama has submitted his budget proposal to be declined everytime....this last time it was unanimous 414-0.  The house on the other hand has passed on every year, only to be rejected by the party of NO (the democrats)... :razz:

^^ Well that's a far cry from inferring that Obama hasn't "done a budget" like she was suggesting.

I think her point is this, under his leadership, he has yet to have a budget bill pass.  The House has always passed a budget resolution with the exception of 2010 when it was under democrat rule.  For some reason, ... obama has not EVER had to utilize a budget.

I think you might want to learn a little about how budgets are passed before you make bigger asses out of yourselves than you already have.  Just sayin'...

I know EXACTLY how they are passed....I'm just sayin, Obama, as a leader, should be more adamant with his congress to work one out, and quit passing the buck.

Bernanke: Lack of Senate budget hurts economy
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has repeatedly refused to pass a budget, which he could do even if only Democrats voted for his budget. ... Maybe a little pressure from the POTUS might persuade Reid to DO HIS JOB.

    :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah:  Henry you know damn well that it takes 60 votes to get anything through the Senate.  Your filibustering bastards stops anything Obama wants.  :doh: :rolleyes: :razz:

  One more thing how does Obama deal with the Tea Party jerks in the House, who has made a pledge to make Obama a one term president.  Also your party has the weakest majority leader, John Boner who can't lead shit.  Didn't old Boner say he was going to put America back to work.  :haha:  :haha:  :haha:

they (the senate) had enough votes to pass a budget resolution...they did not even attempt to do so.  They are sandbagging.  The House has passed a budget resolution every year....but one, and that was led by the democrats.,,2010.

If Obama really wanted one, he would have pressured the senate to pass a resolution, and let them swing it out.  He didn't.

  Who in hell believes Bernanke on anything he says.  Bernanke is one of the people who got us into this depression.  I got to say this one mistake Obama made.  Putting Bernanke in the job he has instead of prison.

  But Harry Reid is only one person and has only one vote.  He does do a litter better job of keeping his Democrats in place than Old Boner has with his Tea Party wackos.   :dizzy2:  :biggrin:
