26. If Dems had passed a budget for FY 2011 while they were in the majority,
we might have a really nice moral ethical budget document as law right now.

We might have a moral, ethical budget document that focused on increasing supports and safety nets for the majority of Americans.

Instead, we are having this what should be an unnecessary discussion about wealthy, powerful "Gang" members taking our tax money, cutting services designed to enhance the quality of life for the majority of Americans, and giving more to the wealthy.

It would have been much more effective if this point had been emphasized by Dem Party leaders when they actually had the power to produce a moral budget document.

Instead of the prize blue ribbon cow, the most we can get now is, at best, is a puddle of sour milk.
