Cut the Crap: Cut, Cap, and Balance

The Republicans in the House of Representatives are stepping out.

They have provided solutions to the ongoing budgetary problems which have for too long plagued this nation.

We need to cut spending, cap available funds to a percentage of GDP, and introduce means for balancing the budget for every fiscal year.

The Republicans have made a move. We have yet to the Democrats propose something meaningful.

A carte blanche raise in the debt ceiling is not acceptable, Mr. President. Congress will not tolerate it. The American people will not accept it.

You were elected to lead. You are expected to provide something concrete for this country to work with. Enough blaming. Enough with the empty rhetoric about everyone "acting like adults." You need to act like a leader, get everyone on both sides into the room and come up with a plan that will cut spending, cap outgoing revenues which do not even exist, and balance the budget over the long-haul, long after you and all the politicians have left Washington, which in your case may be sooner than you think.
