Bennet Frustrated by Budget Crisis He Helped Create

It amuses me that Senator Michael Bennet is frustrated by the budget "crisis" in Washington, DC given that he and his Senate colleagues haven't passed a budget in nearly 800 days.
He also chided the House members, saying, “When I was in local government, it would have been unthinkable for any mayor or superintendent to go to the public and say we can’t agree and we’re going to shut down the government.”
When he was in local government in Colorado, the state Constitution requires that every government in the state must balance their budget every year. If only Congress had the same requirement.
