Deal or no deal?

Any bets on whether or not our government can pass a bill today to address spending before we hit the "debt ceiling" and get our credit rating dropped? I think the Senate will probably pass something, but I give the House a 50/50 chance on actually passing a bill.

Well, it passed, but I'm not so sure it's all that useful. It's only a stop-gap measure until January, when I have a feeling this whole situation will play out again. Not impressed at all at some of the idiotic things that were incorporated into this so-called budget, either.

Yep, they signed off on something but we get to replay the whole thing over again in January. I am so tired of this mess, why can't they just make a real budget and fund the government for oh, I don't know maybe a year at a time?
