John Cornyn said "Mr. President, President Obama's budget has gotten some pretty rough coverage in the media recently. For example, the Los Angeles Times called the President's annual budget ``. . . a strange, almost fictional document.'' An article in Politico said, ``As he prepares to deliver his budget on Monday, President Barack Obama is lurching to the left.''

The President's budget has not had a great voting history in the Senate. Since 2011, there were only 2 votes for the President's proposed budget and 1,023 votes against it.
