re: #253 Sharmuta

15 years ago the balanced budget amendment helped sweep republicans to power. Today, they’re not interested in supporting the same piece of legislation. Stunning.

It narrowly failed in the senate, but it was a landslide victory in the House. Today, it’s likely political suicide, what with all the government junkies who have been created.

Stunning indeed. Not to mention depressing as hell.
