Hopefully these crazy Dems...and they are crazy...will soon be out of business.

The Democrats in the House are dragging their knuckles as they slowly head for the exit.

[MinuteGal]

As they watch in fear and dismay their doomed ship going down, the Dems thrash madly about in the water trying to take as many of their fellow countrymen down with them as they can. Hate, spite and revenge motivate them till their last gurgle when they sink and are eaten by sharks who immediately disgorge them.

(Wow! Did I write that?)

I can’t believe the “media” got so excited this week about Dubai’s 11 million dollar Christmas tree when the Commie’RATS have one that costs 1.1 TRILLION! Look at all those pretty ornaments! 6700 of them!!!

Hot Air says the shenanigans might not be over...

“...Duane Patterson and I discussed this yesterday during my show, after Duane heard from a source on the Hill that a “minibus” might wind up being offered instead.  The “minibus” would be a blend of continuing resolution and omnibus, funding specific agencies or efforts for the entire year while leaving the rest for the Republicans to budget after January.  Instead of having a mid-February expiration on the CR portion, the new deadline would become mid-March, allowing more time for the GOP to apply a systematic approach for budgeting rather than another omnibus...

...  If the “minibus” funds DoD and Homeland Security for the fiscal year without porking it up, that shouldn’t be a big problem for the GOP.  If the Democrats and the White House insist on treating it as a Christmas tree with pork ornaments — or especially if they attempt to push ObamaCare funding through full-year HHS funding — they should insist on just a pure CR, even if it means a tighter deadline on the back end.

Keep a close eye on the CR that gets produced over the weekend.  The shenanigans may not yet be over.”

Anybody know why they extended it just through Tues? Why nor Feb or March? I bet the RATS are up to something sneaky.

Ok... so... does this mean the nightmare ends on Tuesday? We'll then have a balances budget by Wednesday! Wow! Who knew!!!!

maybe i’m crazy... but the thought of shutting down the spending pump doesn’t sound like such a bad idea.
