Buget compromise or just another compromise

Congress with just one hour left averted a shut down, or should we say that they reached a compromise that will allow the first family to go on yet another vacation. Granted that this is just a weekend excursion but never the less they have not been on one in two weeks and they need one.
The deal includes $38.5 billion in spending cuts and leaves the Planned Parenthood cuts in place. I see this as a victory for those of us that believe that this should be funded by the Planned Parenthood and not by public funding.

The money could be used for other public services and this may help educate abusers of the system to learn that if they play they pay not us. We all make mistakes and need help from time to time. That is why I said the abusers of the system not the average users.

 I have listened to both major cable news outlets on the budget deal and who is to blame for us heading to a shutdown and all I heard was that we need a compromise. Do we really need a compromise? I think not, we need our Congress to vote as they see fit not by compromise. If they believe in the budget then vote for it if not then don’t. What happened to doing what you believe in?
Perhaps one day our Congress will vote on what’s best for our Country and our people instead of what is best for the party.
