Inch By Inch

There is a budget brokered,  at least until September.

That’s a big accomplishment considering the Democrats, running a one-party government, couldn’t get a budget introduced, yet alone passed, when they were the only brokers in power.

Somehow, the GOP, holding merely one house of one branch of government imposed it’s will on the rest of the government. Never have so few cut so much from so many government programs. That doesn’t happen unless someone has been given a mandate.

It’s not yet the finest hour, but it is a fine one nevertheless.

The naysayers need to keep in mind that we only hold one branch. We have to chip away at the problem until we hold the Presidency and/or the Senate, too. Until then, I think we need to keep cheering on our GOP, who have shown the backbone we've all been craving for so long. This deal obviously isn't perfect, but it's a darn good start.
