Obama demands House not have a budget either

The Hill:
The White House on Thursday threatened to veto a military spending bill that is slated to come to the House floor this week.
The Obama administration said it is able to accept most of the Military Construction and Veterans Affairs bill, but has adopted a policy of rejecting all 12 House annual appropriations bills until Republicans abandon their budget, authored by Rep.

Obama is demanding that Republicans be as irresponsible as he is.  That is not the act of someone trying to show leadership or create compromise.  It is an act of the most irresponsible President in history.

When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
