It’s the same thing they would do with immigration law reform if we let them: kick the problem down the road to our kids.
The Democrats have the excuse of being Democrats, but it’s chickenhearted of the GOP to play this `CR’ (cowardly resolution) game.
Bookmarked. Will post something every day on FB to refresh people’s memories.
Put me in the “no deal” is better than a “bad deal” category.
No VOTE NO VOTE. The tea party PREVAILS!!! Either quit DICTATING or you shut her down obama and Reid!!!
Looks like no vote today. Boner doesn’t have enough.
Thanks Cincinatus’ Wife.

I asked my boss for a raise. He said the money wasn’t there. So I guess I make do I what I get (like I always do). My bills get paid. I get my beanee weenees. But I don’t get that celebratory dinner because I got a raise. AND THERE IS NO DEFAULT!!!!
Agreed. We need to convince people to quit trying to salvage the GOP, which is just a branch of the DNC, and move forward and push for real conservatives who actually want to help the USA.
Nonsense. They’ve moved the ball forward. What were you expecting them to accomplish?
I expect the House to take charge and do their duty as specified in the Constitution! Is that too much to ask?
That is contrary to what the President expects and what the Senate expects! The House is elected to perform their duties of initiating all economic (tax bills) bills and should do their job. That means defying the President and the Senate if necessary! They are suppose to be the voice of the people and lord knows that they have failed miserably lately!
Bookmark for later.
Heh, It is surprising that more folks show up to defend this show than the Constitution. Probably something in that... I’d guess that democracy is a lost cause at this point.
(But your point remains the same, despite the semantics.)
We need to convince people to quit trying to salvage the GOP
*******
At the risk of stating the obvious, the culture of the GOP is not, and never will be, geared toward winning anything or taking a principled stand. It is more like a social club than a serious political party IMO.
I think I see Captain Obvious on the horizon! :)
Excellent reply! I though I was at least two hundred years in the past and the feeling was so good! Damn that I have to wake up again.
