Time for GOP To Implement Full-Frontal Budget Assault

My advice for the GOP: No more Mr. Nice Guy. No more putting the pretense of civility above the best interests of the nation. Democrats are playing cynical games with our national debt crisis, and it's time they were called out on them -- directly, volubly and repeatedly. Senate Democrats haven't passed their own budget plan in more than two years, despite having strong control of that body. Meanwhile, the nation is teetering on bankruptcy.

I don't make that statement lightly. Our national debt is $14.3 trillion, and our federal deficit is $1.65 trillion. This might be less shocking but for the facts that our projected annual deficits as long as Obama is in charge average $1 trillion, and our unfunded entitlements exceed $88 trillion.

Just yesterday I read two shocking articles comparing the debt picture of the United States to that of Greece. The mere thought that our situations are remotely comparable should send us into anxiety attacks.

I’ve been saying that every new budget they have to present should only cut deeper. Eventually, they might want to start passing partial budgets simply disbanding entire departments and grants.

That is almost exactly my wish list.

Keep submitting new budgets each with at least a 10% reduction of the previous one. Only compromise acceptable would be to the previously submitted budget.

I like the idea of defunding or completely abolishing some of the more useless agencies. Nice additional touch!
