    Enough with the budgetary "Washington Exceptionalism." Families balance their budgets. Washington should too. http://bit.ly/11fRxYN  #NC5

        @virginiafoxx Families don't have credit cards or carry debt? They do, actually, and you know it. You're being dishonest and misleading.

        @virginiafoxx @SpeakerBoehner Does the average family 'balance' their budget though? I venture to think many live outside their means.

        @virginiafoxx @speakerboehner Families go out & get a second job to increase income. Congress can cut tax loopholes & even cut their wages!

        @virginiafoxx We had a balanced budget, until your party got in power in 2000. I blame the GOP.
