What Can You Do In 1,000 Days?

Lots of difficult and important things, as this excellent video from the Heritage Foundation points out. One thing you can’t do, however–at least, not if you are the Democratic Senate–is fulfill your legal obligation to pass a budget. Today is the 1,000th day since the Senate last fulfilled its legal duty by adopting a budget. The fault lies 100% with Harry Reid and his fellow Democrats, who have been in control of the Senate throughout that time:

If you watch President Obama’s State of the Union speech tonight, you should listen for two things: 1) whether he even mentions the fact that the country has gone nearly three years without a budget, in violation of federal law; and 2) when he attacks Congress, whether he mentions the Democratic Senate, which has been led by Harry Reid throughout Obama’s term in office.
