I have been asking this same question !

Because they´re a bunch of wussies.

It is time to bring him up on charges!

Well Duh! They can´t force Harry to prepare a budget because the House always passes a continuing spending resolution so he doesn´t have to prepare one. It´s as simple as that. The House Republicans are more concerned about the bad press they would get rather than stop spending a trillion dollars a year we don´t have on programs and departments we don´t need!

Get Eric Withholder on the case. Then start fitting Harry for an orange jumpsuit.

Justice WILL be done!

What on earth are you doing Byron, asking commonsense questions like this?/s

I wish somebody could convince someone on the level of Rush to start a program of basic education of their listeners. He did it once with the economy and to this day I still remember what he said.

It´s been so deflating to me to learn more and more often of the games the pols have designed for themselves that they continue to use against tax-payers. I no longer have faith in anything most of them say -- it´s all a bunch of lawyer-designed Ponzi activity and corruption, and the members themselves have conveniently insulated themselves from the results.

When truth, laws and even words ("ethics", for example) mean little or nothing, we are becoming a more cynical electorate by the day, and I see no end to it.

First, they have to want him to pass a buget. I don´t see any fighting spirit in Congress.

Why not fine each of them every day they don´t pass a budget ?

I think the Republicans should fold now and give the Dems what they want. They will, in the end, fold anyway, and it would save time, money, ink, and aggravation from false hope if they just conceded now.

The only ´teeth´ these unspeakable miscreants known as libtard politicians would respect would be immediate hanging of the then current majority leader should a budget not be passed - and the trial shouldn´t take more than an hour.

We all know Boehner rolls over for anything Obama and the Democrats want. Why even care about what Boehner and his boys will do this time? They are a joke. They also belong in jail along with Harry Reid.

so right, #9. silence and capitulation on the part of most of the elected republicans. when romney lost, that was the end for me. i have no faith in republican politicians or even in our republic.

Maybe if they take away Harry´s magic underwear he´ll lose his superpowers and not be able to resist the Republicans anymore.

They are all on the same side. It´s not ours.

How about charging him with misfeasance and malfeasance of fiduciary and fiscal responsibility

And not following the law of the land. Didn´t Harry have a tax problem a few years ago for claiming interest payments on land he had previously sold. I wonder if he too the real estate deduction as well

#5 "Withholder" I laughed out loud!

Right idea, #2. Just off by one letter....

There is absolutely no enfocement provision in that Budget Act. See how politicans always give themselves a way out?

Excuse me, but there is this little thing called contempt of Congress. They don´t need a specific enforcement mechanism in the 1974 act. They just need some courage.

Let the country wake up before we declare all out war.
