GOP's Budget Has No Numbers

GOP introduced their new budget yesterday (Thursday) to great media coverage. The only problem was their budget had no numbers. The most embarrassing part was when Minority Leader Boehner, after quoting Obama's line from his press conference "we haven’t seen a budget out of [Republicans]", was asked "where is the budget?" he replied "We'll have that out next week."

Turns out, they have no numbers. Yesterday's fiasco was about the outline. Which royally pissed off the press because they were told on Tuesday night that "Given the President’s comments [Tuesday] night... we wanted to make sure you're all aware that we are introducing our Republican Budget Alternative tomorrow."

The really ironic part is that their real budget is coming out April 1st. AKA: April Fools.
