I am all for airtight fiscal policy, really one of the primary reasons I've voted Republican, but it sounds like someone missed the class on how the budget process, requisitions and emergency amendments work and just bought what the Heritage Foundation is shoveling. Dude glossed the supremacy clause too; education is run differently in every single state, so this process would play out in 50 different ways. Really, about 2 years of basic PoliSci education altogether would have informed this article enough to be useful. Wouldn't it be nice if it was so simple a dumb blogger could solve it in an article?
