President Obama’s final budget proposal, which increases government spending by $4.15 trillion, got a chilly reception Tuesday in Congress. Many Republicans already are dismissing the spending plan outright.

House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., snarkily tweeted a survey asking what the mountain pictured on the cover of Obama’s budget proposal symbolized. Options: debt, regulations, taxes, or all of the above.

“it's not the current budget that passed the House and Senate, and was signed by the President”

Was that a budget or a continuing resolution? I don't think a budget has been passed and signed since Obama took office.

Correction:

It will be passed by 51% of Republicans, in ‘safe’ seats or non-election-year worries, while the other 49% get to say NAY whom ARE up for election in contested districts.

DEMs are like lemmings and will follow their leader, lock, stock and barrel.

The CR ran out December 22, 2015. The current budget was implemented then. Voted on by Congress and Signed into law by the President. It's why everyone was so upset at Boehner.

Yep! The Republicans are in no position to mock anyone’s budget as for all their talk they are big government liberal hacks. They will fold and tell us it is conservatives fault they had to cave in the process.

The Republican congress will be hated more by their own base than by the democrat voters come November 2016.
