“Defund all the special interest programs the commies have salted in the budget and my bet is you would make a great deal of progress to balancing the budget.”

The GOP has controlled the appropriations process in Congress since January 2011. Every dime spent by the federal leviathan is approved by the GOP House and since January 2015 by a GOP House and Senate.

The GOP is as much a part of the spending problem as Obama. Perhaps even more to blame because they do have the power to stop it and don’t.

Anyone who believes we only need to elect a GOP president should answer one question. Do you really believe Jeb will get spending under control and stop the foolishness? His brother George lost his spending veto pen his first day in office and didn’t even try to reign in spending under his watch. The cumulative federal deficit doubled from $5 to $10 trillion under the last Bush.

The GOP loves Planned Parenthood and the other special interest groups just as much as the Democrats. I no longer listen to the lies they spout. I simply watch their despicable behavior.

So you really believe Obola wouldn’t veto a budget where PP funding was eliminated?
