Bloated Omnibus Bill Passes Senate. No wonder these guys don’t want to pay taxes.

March 10th, 2009

The 2009 Omnibus Bill, $414,000,000,000 +change, no pun intended.

Reuters Story

This is the same “budget” bill that supposed to keep the government running until September.  The same bill that’s so loaded with useless spending that 40 House Democrats voted against it.

Oh, did we mention that it also included legislation to undo Washington DC’s current “school choice” scenario?

But don’t worry, Michigan still gets $1.5 Million or so to tag & release fish in Lake MIchigan.
