HIPPOCRIT PARTY STRIKES AGAIN

Share Comments 270 Senate Democrats voted to adopt statutory pay-go rules for legislative business on Thursday, in what party leaders described as an affirmation of their commitment to budgetary discipline. They received no Republican votes.
The measure, which would require that any additional spending measure be offset by funds from elsewhere, passed the chamber with 60 Democrats voting yea and 40 Republicans voting nay.

Such a strict partisan breakdown is hardly rare in the current Congress. But for pay-go, it is a bit unique. Four Republican senators who opposed the measure on Thursday voted for nearly an identical measure in 2006.
That list includes Sens. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, both moderates from Maine, George Voinovich, the retiring Senator from Ohio, and John McCain, the party's standard-bearer in the 2008 presidential elections. What prompted the four to switch isn't entirely clear. The respective pieces of legislation are not that far apart, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's office confirmed.

WASHINGTON—Democrats, Sunday said they were pushing an array of ideas for cutting the federal deficit. But Republicans rejected their proposals as ineffective and misleading.

The two parties' comments set the tone for what could be a contentious week on Capitol Hill, with the president set to release his fiscal 2011 budget proposal on Monday and Senate Democrats to unveil a jobs bill expected to cost about $80 billion over 10 years.

Democrats said they and President Barack Obama have made a number of significant proposals aimed at cutting the deficit in recent days, including to freeze much domestic spending, to establish a deficit-cutting commission, and to enact legislation that would require Congress offset any new spending.

Republicans on Sunday criticized the Democrats' approach. "We're seeing the rhetoric of fiscal discipline, but not seeing the follow-through in fiscal policy," Rep. Paul Ryan (R., Wis.), the top Republican on the House Budget Committee, said on "Fox News Sunday."

Sen. Lamar Alexander (R., Tenn.), appearing on the same program, praised Mr. Obama for talking about spending and tax cuts, but said his ideas were flawed. "I'll give the president some credit," he said. "He's in the right church but the wrong pew."

Democrats responded that Republicans would rather score political points than solve the problem. They noted that seven Republican senators initially co-sponsored a bill to create a deficit-reduction commission, then voted against it.

"I think Republicans owe an explanation on that vote and others about whether we're just playing games up here," White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said on CNN's "State of the Union" Sunday.
