Balanced Bullshit Amendment Fails

Huzzah!

This bill was a sham anyway. With no caps and nothing more than a simple majority needed to ignore it, it was meaningless. If it had passed, it would have provided no obstacle to running a deficit. This was smoke and mirrors designed to get RINOs off the hook with conservative voters.

It would, however, have provided Democrats with a meaningless scrap of paper to wave around and claim that they therefore need to raise taxes, and we would of course fall for it.
So I’m doubly glad this thing went down in flames.
