Give Me Chastity, But Not Yet!!

The Senate Republicans don't seem to be interested in any sort of compromise that would result in a balanced budget, like closing tax loopholes. Instead, they are proposing a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution. This reminds me of the famous saying of St. Augustine: "Give me chastity, but not yet."

Apparently, they'd like a balanced budget sometime in the misty distant future, but certainly not today or tomorrow. How can anyone take their position seriously. Are you listening, Tea Party?
