Cornyn Criticizes Senate Democrats for Abdicating Responsibility for Political Expedience
Texas Insider Report: WASHINGTON D.C. U.S. Sen. John Cornyn R-Texas a member of the Senate Committees on Finance and Budget today issued the following statement in response to Senate Democrats plan to forego producing a budget and ignore entitlement reform because it is politically expedient:
Senate Democrats have given their game plan away: abdicate their responsibilities and focus on the next election. While their only concern is 2012 my colleagues and I are more concerned with 2024. Thats when Medicare will go broke if not sooner. Democrats might be comfortable whistling past the Medicare graveyard but Republicans are interested in solving problems."
