new budget proposal

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/

I liked this article from the huffington post because it kind of captured how i feel about the latest agreement and "compromise" on capitol hill from congress. It seemed as if perhaps maybe president Obama is trying to be too agreeable because election season is soon approaching. Harry reid called this a "historic" event because planned parenthood and The EPA was prevented from getting shutdown. To most people who are not idea logs dont really care too much about social issues rather are more concerned about balancing the budget and creating a growing economy. I get the sense that again too much politics is getting in the way of getting anything done in Washington. On another note that is not in this article but related to the Gov't shutdown is the possibility of out service men and women not receiving a paycheck because of the shutdown. I think that is absurd and there must be a bill that will prevent that from ever happening.
