In his speech, Romney faulted Obama for failing to pass a budget. He was correct that the two times Congress voted on the president’s budget requests, both times they were voted down. But the job of passing a budget resolution is not the president’s. That responsibility falls to Congress, and even then the president doesn’t sign it. As Ellis, our expert, put it: "The president has no role in passing a budget. The president can cajole Congress about passing a budget and advocate for positions and funding levels, but in the end, Congress approves the budget resolution for their own purposes." That’s the difference between this and other claims we’ve rated which blamed Congress for inaction on the budget.Freedom of Information laws were one of the greatest products of legislation ever.

The problem isn't outing the gun owners. The problem is that a data base held by government even exists.The New York newspaper, The Journal News, is coming under fire for publishing an interactive database of all residents with handgun permits in Westchester and Rockland counties.
The map ran with a story late last month called “The gun owner next door: What you don’t know about the weapons in your neighborhood,” and notes there are 44,000 hand gun owners in Westchester, Rockland and Putnam counties—about one out of every 23 residents.
They're both problems. Anyone who thinks that if a gov't can accumulate a database and won't hasn't read his Hsün-tzu.The problem isn't outing the gun owners. The problem is that a data base held by government even exists.

The outing by a newspaper is just as big and as bad. I wonder if that paper will now get sued into extinction. Pssst ... NYC gun licensees ... class action. cn

yeah, the government should probably broadcast sensitive intelligence to every american citizen. that'd work out real well.The idea that the government can do anything without our knowledge is ridiculous. The government shouldn't be able to hide anything from the people, no matter what lame brain excuse.
Lol I guess when you worship government that would be true. Like when your buddy bush tortures people, lies about it then changes it to another name. Maybe government should hide everything from us since they are so trustworthy?yeah, the government should probably broadcast sensitive intelligence to every american citizen. that'd work out real well.
there's some space between the absolutes, ya know. a lot of people take up residence there.Lol I guess when you worship government that would be true.

Not when it comes to government. It isn't like they are telling a fat girl she looks thin in that dress. Mostly they hide stuff that's illegal or wrong.there's some space between the absolutes, ya know. a lot of people take up residence there.
