Trump's Budget Authorization Hoodwinks Democrats, AGAIN!

We are hearing from the unwashed that the GOP has lost its conservatism with respect to federal spending. That is just spin to throw cold water on the budget resolution, step 2 in the budgetary process. What just passed was the "up to" budget authorization. Don't believe everything you hear from MSM who has no idea of this process. I have a feeling the congressional leadership knows exactly what it is doing. Step 3 will be what is termed "budget reconciliation" or "markup" of the Appropriation Committees in each chamber. The final step in the legislative process will be the final Appropriation of budgets provided by the 12 Appropriation Subcommittees. Of late, all 12 are thrown into an "Omnibus Appropriation Bill". You say, if you are Tingly Leg Boy, Chris Matthews [No relation, hopefully], that the GOP has lost its conservative way. If you believe that, you are hopelessly naive about the wily ways of Washington. I say however, once again, the Ds have been comically hoodwinked. A Budget Resolution simply states the maximum that may be spent in the Appropriation process. Does that mean they will appropriate all that has been authorized under the Resolution. Absolutely not! Defense will get every penny they wish. Discretionary spending, so giving the Ds that tingly feeling up the leg however, will be short-sheeted. It should also be known that, even if funds are appropriated, it is not require that they be spent. The Rule is that any appropriated funds now spent are returned to the General Fund--so much the better. It is already fairly known that certain agencies, created by the Obama Administration, will never see a dollar and by default will just disappear from planet Dearth. HOODWINKED AGAIN!
