The President's Budget Plan For The Next Fiscal Year Will Be At Least A Month Late

CQ Roll Call reports: The Office of Management and Budget now says March 4 is the earliest the White House will send its proposal to Congress. "Passback," the budget negotiations between the White House and agencies, began just days ago. They usually start in November. The law requires that the president deliver his budget by the first Monday in February. OMB blames the drawn-out stalemate over the fiscal cliff. Officials tell lawmakers: they had to wait for a solution to know how much revenue to expect this year.

obama thumbs his nose at any legal requirements (like the Constitution) that might affect his actions. He is KING, not President, and long ago revealed his lack of knowledge of, and his dismissal of, any LEGAL restraints or provisions that "we the people" have placed upon his office. He counts on the slobbering and imbecilic devotion of his followers who refuse to see any problem with ANYTHING he does.
