Budget-less America: “If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.”
The Democratic resistance to agreeing upon a budget is leading America down an irrational spending frenzy.

Washington, Dec 12, 2012 -

WASHINGTON – U.S. Representative Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo)  joined fellow republican members of the House on the floor on Wednesday to discuss the impending fiscal cliff, the failure of the Democratic Senate to put forth a budget and the room still left for compromise. Watch her remarks HERE.

“In the case of Alice in Wonderland there’s a line that says, ‘If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there.’ Certainly in the case of Congress the Republicans have laid out a road map for America’s future… It lays out a plan for spending, it lays out a plan to sustain the viability and vitality of social security and Medicare and Medicaid into the future. That is our roadmap to America’s future. That is our budget. It passed this House. By contrast, the Democrats have not put forward a budget for over 1300 days.”
