                    [Summary] => 

Senators should mind their own business instead of keeping an eye on the House of Representatives, a House official suggested yesterday as leaders of Congress said deliberations on the 2006 national budget are on track.


"Just like in a basketball game, why don’t (the senators) just start their own game in their own court rather than watch us play and cheer us to finish the game within the regulated time?" Rep. Rolando Andaya Jr., chairman of the House appropriations committee, asked.
