Blunt: "Missourians Didn't Really Weigh In Saying, 'Keep Trying to Hold the Budget Down'"

In a new web video, Roy Blunt asks for help with the House Republicans' "You Cut" campaign.  The idea is that citizens will send their ideas to Congress for what they think should be cut from the federal budget, ignore House Republicans' actual record of irresponsible budgeting, and perhaps believe that past performance is no indicate of future behavior.

But in the video, Blunt makes a rather odd statement about his time in the Congressional Leadership:

Most Missouri families do a lot better job balancing their budget than the federal budget does balancing its budget. I led the fight in 2005 to cut the entitlement programs, the only time we did it in ten years. We got that bill on the President's desk.  But during that fight, Missourians didn't really weigh in saying, "Keep trying to hold the budget down." Let's see what you want to cut...

Really?  People in Missouri didn't "weigh in" on Republicans' deficit spending while he was in Washington? Maybe Ol' Roy wasn't listening.
