Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie says he will not be participating in a continuing resolution in this year’s budget debate, because he says all it amounts to is political theater. “It’s the same plot every fiscal year,” Massie says, and he’s not wrong.

We’ll all sit around and argue on Twitter and Facebook while our representatives duke it out in Congress, but it’s always the same result: A continuing resolution, and an omnibus bill sometime during the cold months, and a continuation of government expansion and overspending — and it doesn’t matter who’s in control of Congress.

I’ll hand the mic over to Massie, because I’m already getting heated just punching this up on my keyboard.

This is Groundhog Day. I don’t care if the Democrat is the speaker or a Republican is the speaker. We always get a [continuing resolution] in September, and then we get an omnibus … That’s what’s going to happen. And in the meantime, it’s political theater. It’s good theater. We’ve got great writers. I wish they’d just come up with a new plot.

…

We should’ve done twelve separate bills. But, again, whether Democrats are in control or Republicans are in control we never do the twelve separate bills.

Why do we always spend at least as much as we did last year, and why do we never cut spending? It’s because Democrats want to grow the welfare state, and Republicans want to grow the military industrial complex. And we’re eventually going to get together, and they’re both going to go up, I guaran-damn-tee it.

And both parties are just fine letting the bureaucrats do their thing, which should be our thing according to Article 1, section A in the Constitution.

Dude just went off!

He’s even unwilling to vote to keep the SAVE Act in there, because he knows it’s just a fake fight that will accomplish nothing. Props to him for bringing that up.

He’s been in Congress for 12 years, and he’s clearly over it.
