The Hill ^ | 3/8/13 | Jeremy Herb

The Obama administration will release its 2014 budget more than two months late on April 8, according to congressional sources. Pentagon officials have informed the House Armed Services Committee that the budget is coming on April 8, said Claude Chafin, a committee spokesman. A Democratic congressional source confirmed that is the planned release date. The April release means President Obama´s budget will be nine weeks late, as it was due by law on Feb. 4, the first Monday in February. Republicans have slammed Obama for delaying the budget since the first missed deadline.

Did he give an explanation as to why he believes the law does not apply to him?

"The April release means President Obama´s budget will be nine weeks four years and nine weeks... late, as it was due by law on Feb. 4, the first Monday in February."

Worthless and incompetent jackasses.

Don’t any of these laws have penalties associated with them? What good is a law if you never enforce it?

How is this relevant? Without a budget from Congress, an executive-branch budget is meaningless. Worse: it becomes a place to hide money.

Relevant? Only that he is bound by law to deliver a budget on time.

" House deputy press secretary Josh Earnest.....pointed the finger at Congress when explaining the lengthy delay"

It is truly astonishing how childish this administration acts. Any competent administrator would be embarrassed by such petulant excuses. One can only believe that the perpetrator of all this whining can only be POTUS.

Has he not submitted two budgets and both were voted down in a manner that the budgets did not get one vote.
