Reid: GOP Budget as Balanced as Nepal Earthquake

Minority Leader Harry Reid again slammed the GOP budget proposal on the Senate floor Wednesday, comparing it to the recent 7.8 magnitude earthquake in Nepal which has killed more than 4,000 people.

“The budget is just wrong. It’s also dishonest,” Reid said. “It claims to be balanced. There is no balance in this budget, that’s a word. The budget is no more balanced than the earthquakes they’ve had in Nepal.”
