In other words, you got nuthin' :laugh:
She does still have her vote

You explained it using a logical fallacy, the slippery slope, which is clearly ungrounded. If it was inevitable any such voting limitations would lead to a collapse of true democracy, the Electoral College would not have evolved into what it is, an expensive (and occasionally controversial) symbol like the monarch is to England.
Wait a minute. So went through all the points only to have your hinge on a Congressional budget approval? Because if that's all you're putting your bets on, perhaps if you examined the absolutely ludicrous budget proposals posed by the Republican assemblymen you would oil that hinge sufficiently to realize exactly why there is no approval.
Hell, even the Republicans voted against their own budget proposals (in some cases unanimously against... wth is that?!?)
After initial efforts to present a budget, the Democrats in Congress realized that the Republicans in Congress were going to vote against "any" budget proposal, INCLUDING their own. So yes, the Democrats are waiting for a new Congress, one that isn't so heavily focused on trying to make Obama look bad.
But seriously, and a very important point here is --- approving a budget is the the purview of Congress, not the office of the President. The Republican controlled House is blocking a budget approval, among many other things.
So, if you really want a budget on record, when you get to a voting booth on election day, remember to vote out all those Republican Representatives in your respective districts, because they're the ones playing games with our Nation's government budget.
But the House does and then a compromise has to be made between both the House & Senate. This is the sticking point, which I will address below.That is crap and you know it.
The Senate doesn't need republicans to pass any bill.
Nope, not true. A budget was written by the Republicans that outlined an earlier budget proposal from Obama. However, that budget proposal was superceded by a new deficit-reduction plan that Obama proposed in April. Thus, the Republicans grabbed an old Obama proposal and put it for a vote as a means to embarrass Obama, because they knew the Democrats weren't going to approve an old proposal, particularly when a better proposal was pending from Obama (he detailed the new proposal in a speech, but did not yet deliver it to Congress, for reasons I will address below). <Click Here>Matter of point a democraticly written bill was presented, and Reid said he would not let it go to the floor.
Senate passes one, it goes to committee. Not such a hard thing, I mean after all, the senate heathcare bill was vastly different from the Houses, and magically, something got done. How is a budget any different.
Let's see, I addressed your economic concerns through the Budget Control Act of 2011, I have not yet heard what you define as the Democrat's platform, and I pointed out where the game really is, which is that it's with the Republicans.And the budget wasn't my sticking point, but yes economics was. And, I want the democrats out, I don't like their platform. I don't like their logic, I don't like their game. So there you go.....
JUST TO CLARIFY.....I am STILL voting for Romney!!!!
