Today is September 30th, the final day of fiscal year 2015 for the federal government. Tomorrow, October 1st, begins the first day of Fiscal Year 2016.

Despite the Republicans controlling both the House of Representatives and the Senate, there is still no federal budget for the fiscal year beginning tomorrow.
Instead of a budget, the Republicans have chosen to advance yet another “Continuing Resolution” (CR), and yet another insufferable debt ceiling increase, to fund federal spending for 2016. A massive slap in the face to the conservative electorate that gave the Republicans majorities in both chambers.
The last federal budget was signed into law in September of 2007 by President George W. Bush. Since that time the federal deficit has exploded due (in no small part) to the 2009 trillion dollar “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act“, commonly known as the “stimulus bill“, that has been embedded in the baseline of federal spending and re-spent every year for the past seven years.
Seven trillion dollars in federal deficit spending specifically because there has never been a budget since Fiscal year 2008.
Both Senate Leader Mitch McConnell, and Speaker of The House John Boehner, swore to the base of the party, if they were given control in November 2014 they would return to “regular order”; regular budgetary order.

They Lied !

We have accepted their lies for the last time. NO MORE.
Tomorrow, on what should be the first day of Fiscal Year 2016, we begin Operation Cold Anger.
The goal of Cold Anger will be to empower ourselves, Democrats, Republicans and Independents, all patriots, to retake control of congress and the White House on our terms.

“[…] As parents, we can have no joy, knowing that this government is not sufficiently lasting to ensure any thing which we may bequeath to posterity: And by a plain method of argument, as we are running the next generation into debt, we ought to do the work of it, otherwise we use them meanly and pitifully.

In order to discover the line of our duty rightly, we should take our children in our hand, and fix our station a few years farther into life; that eminence will present a prospect, which a few present fears and prejudices conceal from our sight.”

“[…] If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.” ~ Thomas Paine
