Congressional Black Caucus Chairman Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) expressed concern President Obama's budget would go too far to rein in government spending in the midst of an economic recovery, calling the forthcoming proposal a 'nervous breakdown on paper.'
"This budget is a nervous breakdown on paper," said Cleaver during an interview on CNN's Starting Point Monday morning. "We're still in a recession, we're still struggling. Unemployment is still too high," he said.
The Missouri lawmaker said he understood the need for Congress to rein in spending. "We do have a serious ailment as a nation and certainly as Congress," he said. "We suffer from 'spendicitis.'" But Cleaver said the president was not "the one who spread this disease" and had inherited those problems when he came to office.

Apparently there is no need for rational thought in D.C or this guy is a raving idiot.
he may have inherited some problems, but he has definitely amassed many problems of his own!! at some point in time he needs to take responsibility for the mess he has created.
Any problems he inherited were caused by Democrat policies.
