Senate Democrats and the White House are pressuring Republican members of the Gang of Six to reach an agreement on a deficit-reduction package so it can be used as a credible alternative to the budget unveiled last week by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), according to Senate sources.

Can someone please inform me since when it was that the executive branch is in charge of the LEGISLATIVE branch? I must have forgotten that part of the Constitution.

And while we're at it, someone tell me where the SENATE...or a group of SIX senators therein, are given the responsibility for revenue-creating LEGISLATION.

See, 'cause the way I remember the Constitution, all bills for raising revenue MUST BEGIN IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Isn't that in the Constitution?

While the Constitution may be just a piece of tissue paper to Hussein and his sycophant media, I suggest the rest of America take heed to it and pay attention.

The starting point should be Ryan's budget plan: the House of Representatives, being the CLOSEST to the PEOPLE, is the proper starting point.

Constitution????
They don’t want no stinking constitution!

I haven’t paid much attention to the “Gang of Six” but has anyone else noticed that this is the first Senate “gang” that hasn’t included McCain or Graham? Hmmm?
