The reason Senator Schumer said to his collegues to use the word 'extreme' is because up to now they were being polite and attempting bi-partisanship. So, instead of being polite and trying to have civility rule the day, the Democrats decided to be HONEST.
...Boehner's [Boner] office dismissed the accusations, saying the House of Representatives has done its part by passing a long-term spending plan that would cut $61 billion. "The Senate has not — and Sen. Schumer's inaccurate rants won't change that," Boehner spokesman Michael Steel said....
Michael Steel is Speaker Boner's spokesman? Is this the Michael Steel that was kicked out of the Chairmanship of the RNC?
At any rate, the House Budget is completely partisan, it is grossly disgusting in its attack on vital programs to the country, it has no sense of priorities except to pander to cronies.
Why should the Senate pass something that is as hideous and ridiculous at that? It is insulting to the Senate to even have it come to their chamber. If the Speaker Boner is stating they will pass 'A Senate Proposed Budget' because they are ill equiped to put together a 'good budget' then Senator Shumer should lead the effort in writing a Budget from the Senate to send to the House.
If Republican Senators can't vote for a 'good budget' then it will be ON RECORD.
End of Discussion.
