We're trying to Barcelona president -- 2014.
-- get.
I wait.
There is no 2014.
President balanced budget president missed a deadline set by a lot to submit his plan.
But so GOP representative -- -- -- by the set up a house vote a vote on a blank piece of paper so what happened.
-- I'm not -- joins us what happened.
Well we don't know we'll find out later on tonight we we actually offered 34 pages of question -- you can't just offering blank piece of paper we we thought about trying -- -- or to.
To offer an amendment on the floor of the house checks have to put it in a budget -- -- -- had 35 pages.
Where -- supposed to be numbers filled and you look at Paul Ryan's budget it's -- numbers filled and you look at the Democrats in the house the numbers -- filled and we didn't have any numbers so we put that question marks.
It's imminent I find it appalling that when people can't meet deadlines he missed the February 4 deadline so it's going to be -- -- Late march that's not happening now they say if -- totally to me is like you know that it is such disregard -- the law the law that says that.
He's not the first on many presidents before him have blown off his deadline nonetheless it does exist how has actually the first president ever to be -- to -- it didn't let go after the house of the senate.
But he's but he's not the first hundred -- the deadline but I'm curious.
You don't even need the president's budget due to go for any -- -- you know President Obama go ahead don't do your job but we're gonna do our.
But in theory you don't need it you'd like to have it and -- that the budget is really two things are part of the budget is is the spending for next year.
And it's also sort of this vision for the next ten years and actually be on the next ten years Paul talks Paul Ryan talks a lot about the the importance of the budget has a vision document.
But it doesn't bother doing why you included in the process into known image where he obviously has it has decided not to be part of the process by being last you and you I think don't need him I think.
I think people who deserve to know when the president is not following the loss until folks tonight I'd be doing this -- this is Republican president it's wrong.
That a president doesn't follow the law the house of the house the senate -- for years the senate hasn't passed a budget for three years.
We finally passed a law this year is that if you don't pressure budget if you don't get hey yeah right and we forgot to include the president with that we never occurred to us the president would not offer a budget because presidents have always -- yes.
They have missed deadlines the past but none of them have ever waited till after the -- -- -- there have Paul and that they bought the deadline they say well we've had a lot of -- unexpected things we've had the sequester we've had does CR but the promise it but so is the house and the senate head to sequester and -- and now at least the house -- senate have a budgeted.
And he doesn't.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Reach out it has anything to reach across the -- is completely stonewalling us on this but what -- and in the meantime I think you are viewing the house so -- -- -- -- out again moving on and just says that you had a teammate changes wanna say -- by the time that if Royce rolls around doing at this week.
And -- -- guys -- nice to see you sir thanks for --
