Trying to figure out what is more entertaining; watching both sides blame each other if the govt shuts down, listening to the left complain that 'granny gonna kick' if Ryan's budget is passed, or Trump investigating Barry's birth certificate
Ryan's budget is not up for debate, and it isn't even a real budget; he published a guideline paper. He promised later that he'd produce the actual budget legislation. This is for FY 2011-2012 for October 1. [fiscal years end on Sep 31 and begin on Oct 1]


What's at issue right now is that the stopgap budget bills have only extended government spending up to tomorrow evening. Obama wants them to put in a remainder budget that continues to fund the government to Sep 31 and that's where all this ideology sh*t has entered the picture.


This is also different than the debt ceiling which has to be re-approved each time the current account deficit nears the limit.
