Well, we will never know. It's old news now, on to more news. We need money, so Democrats have tapped onto new ideas:

Democrats Plan to Tax Enpanding Universe

Washington, DC -- With the budget wrapped up, Democrats passed the first draft of a bill, which will tax the solar systems that are expanding toward the edges of the Universe. The money will be used to study the effects of the expansion and maybe slow it down. It may be good, or bad. They do not know.

Boehner-In-Th-Ass did not get his shit together. It is more math than they can handle. Bring in engineers?

House members were suppose to take up the measure Wednesday. But Boehner is scrambling to re write it after budget officials determined the proposal would not cut $1.2 trillion from the deficit as promised.

Tea Party To Balance Budget
Washington, DC -- Members of the Tea Party proposed cutting the socialist school lunch program. This Program will save 8.7 trillion from the budget. Or Billion. Or something. They will get back to us.

In any case, something Federal needs to be cut. Taking over the Sporting Conservation Council, they plan to open all federal lands to hunting, including wild life reserves. The goal is to wipe out mourning doves in five years. "We are going to recreate the passenger pigeon story to honor our ancestors."
