It's only about screwing over Obama. An amendment to the Constitution requiring a balanced budget would take years to pass. 2/3rds of the States have to ratify it. So making it sound like it is the cure of all our ills is BS. The Republicans could not give a rats ass about submitting a budget that requires no deficit. They asked Bachman who is railing like hell about not raising the debt ceiling. When asked if she would submit a budget that would not exceed the debt limit and agree to submit only balanced budgets she hemmed and hawed and then said she would try. It's all part of the plan to make sure Obama is a one term President. Mitch McConnell, the GOP's head dude in the Senate has said as much. He said their number one priority is to make Obama fail. So to hell with the Country as long as the GOP wins. Sorry state of affairs if you ask me.
