DeMint to Force Another Senate Vote on Cut, Cap, Balance

YES!  This is what the damned House needs to support.  The House passed Cut, Cap and Balance (CCB), and the Senate tabled it.  They did not kill it.  Tabling a bill leaves it in limbo until it is actually killed, rescued, or the session ends (IIRC).

“The bipartisan House-passed Cut, Cap, Balance bill remains the only plan on the table, the only one that preserves our AAA rating, and is only four Democrat votes away from a Senate majority to end this debt crisis,” said Senator DeMint. “I will work to force another vote on Cut, Cap & Balance next week because the President and Democrats have not offered the American people any other viable solution.

This is what we need to support, not ever-more cockamamie McConnell-Boehner-Read schemes.   Please note that the only two meaningful contributions to our fiscal debate, the Ryan budget and the CCB act, have not only come from the Republicans, but from the Tea Party side of the Republicans.  The Tea Party is the only serious presence in Washington.
