the president's budget is proverb

 the president's budget is a good budget. The president's budget would get a majority of Democrats in the House and in the Senate.

 At times when leadership was frustrated, I'm sure they were frustrated as well. They kept an even keel and kept us on the right path. Republicans went into this budget with very little expectation that we would be standing here today having participated fully in the budget process. ... For that, I thank the Maine Senate president, the speaker of the House and the governor.

 President Bush's pledge to halve the budget deficit by 2009 distracts policymakers from the real issue of unsustainable trends in long-term entitlement spending. The president's proposal to slow Medicare's 9% annual growth rate is a good fiscal step, but the budget does not propose enough immediate and bold reforms to the quickly growing entitlement programs that threaten to overwhelm the budget.

 By using the budget bill primarily as a vehicle for Arctic Refuge drilling, the Senate has dropped any pretense of working to balance the budget or reduce the deficit. The Senate is treating the budget process as a joke and a special interest gravy boat.

 Congress usually puts aside every budget from the President and will write their own. We will be working with our Congressional delegation as Congress writes their budget, so farmers shouldn't get too worked up until we get to the budget writing committees. This is the first step in a long process.

 [But the amendment threatened the overall budget deal, and was opposed by the White House.] As a free-standing matter, I think this president's sympathies are pretty clear around the thrust of the legislation, ... The problem is, the amendment doesn't stand freely. It stands encumbering the balanced budget agreement that we also fought very hard for. The president is not about to see all that hard work go down the drain.

 The president has rejected calls to raise taxes. The (White House) Office of Management and Budget will be working with Congress to cut unnecessary spending in the federal budget to handle the concerns raised by Katrina.

 At first glance, the President's mix of spending and spending cuts presents a fiscally tight budget. But, this proposal is ultimately what's wrong with Washington. The President is not being forthcoming about his budget or the booming deficit.

 They have been following a budget that is faulty, and instead of sitting down with the president and with us and coming up with a consensus budget, they've been following this faulty budget,

 I always believe that a budget speaks of the collective values of the nation. So I can't understand why the president submits a budget to the Congress that ultimately does tremendous damage to education. From Head Start to special education, from vocational programs to college aid, this budget slashes the investments that are needed to help children prepare to compete in this global economy.

 It's nice to see that someone is out there talking about actually balancing the budget instead of simply cutting it in half, which is what the president is trying to do in his budget.

 It is not advisable to have an alternative budget without knowing how much you are budgeting for. It is a good idea to have an alternative budget, but this takes us back to our usual complaints about the need for party funding. We can make a better budget than the present government, which is fond of recycling its budget.

 One bad thing is that the new President Bush budget cuts NCCC funding. I'm definitely crossing my fingers that the money is put in the final budget.

 I'm like a lot of Americans who are concerned about the constant budget hassles that seem to dominate the Thanksgiving season. Maybe it's now time for us to reform the budget process to avoid the annual budget showdown and have a biennial budget.

 It cannot be held tomorrow due to the Rail Budget, or on February 27 because of presentation of Economic Survey and the next day due to the General Budget. President Bush would arrive here on Tuesday.
