text: And now the Leadership in the Senate has come with a novel "stop me before I kill again" excuse that unless they impose a spending limit on themselves they simply cannot address this fiscal crisis. We are supposed to believe that this fiscal disaster is not their fault because they weren't told how much they could spend.  It is as if these Legislators are unaware that they are responsible for all state government appropriations;  therefore,  a spending limit is exactly what they are elected to establish each year.   OK - you can only spend one dollar. Now get to work.
