I left my last job because I didn't get promoted. Actually, I left because I didn't see a path to promotion — not then and not any time in the foreseeable future.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is unveiling his eighth and final budget, a $4 trillion-plus proposal that's freighted with liberal policy initiatives and new and familiar tax hikes — all sent to a dismissive Republican-controlled Congress that simply wants to move on from his presidency.
