Bolden Budget Quotes From Today's Budget Hearing (Update)

Keith’s note: I was watching this hearing on NASA TV. About halfway through the video froze while the audio continued. As such it was often hard to tell who was speaking. After correcting my earlier tweet, I posted some additional comments on Twitter that ended up with a member of Congress responding. See below for that conversation.
@NASAWatch Wouldn't such a move be highly unusual & unprecedented? Seems like Culbertson wants to usurp POTUS budget before presented.

@NASAWatch Understand Bolden didn't say this, but it's a lousy idea. What next, DOD budget goes straight to Armed Services Cmt?

@SpaceArtAl @CongCulberson clearly doesn't understand how gov't agencies develop budgets if he thinks that he gets to see it before WH 1/2

@SpaceArtAl @chakafattah also lacks an understanding of budget procedures if he thinks #NASA budget request goes to Congress before WH 2/2

@NASAWatch @SpaceArtAl You miss the point .I know how our budget system works.I was just commented in a humorous way to the Chair's joke

@chakafattah @NASAWatch My comment was more directed to what Cong. Culbertson said about bypassing OMB. I assumed you were joking.
