Budget bits - Pelosi is good at her job

It has alot to do with the size of the majority, but still, "It was the first time in a dozen years that a budget had received more than 230 votes."

And, More House Republicans voted against their alternative (token) budget than Dems voted against Obama's real budget.

(Also in the Senate's version, a bipartisan amendment "that would raise the estate tax exemption by $1.5 million, to a total of $5 million, and reduce the tax’s maximum rate by 10 percentage points, to 35 percent." (I'd be curious how that comes out of committee.))
