GOP Budget Strategy Collapsing

David Rogers:
“Like an army that’s outrun its supply line, the Republican budget
strategy in Congress shows almost daily signs of coming apart. The
central premise, as sold by House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan,
was that Washington could wipe out deficits in 10 years and protect
defense spending, all while embracing the lower appropriations caps
dictated by sequestration. Four months later, it’s proving to be a
bridge too far. Only three of the 12 annual spending bills have even
been debated — by far the worst record since the GOP took over the
House.”
