In other words all 9 voted to slash benefits to disabled vets, while refusing to cut a $4.2 billion additional child credit ‘loophole’ for illegal aliens.

What would you expect from incompetent politicians. Their only interest is being elected or re-elected. They are obsessed with power, perks and privilege and care little about Americans and America. Thus they are truly un-American. Power corrupts and they conduct themselves accordingly, corrupt, greedy, selfish, self-serving and immoral.

Peoples conservatism varies from state to state, and where you might find admirable conservatism in some states, others have an entirely different view on the subject, and those that vye for your affections in a campaign season...

But we will all probably be dead and gone before we see an appreciable change in political conduct within those entities...
Might as well start now...
The same deomrats who are usually financed by unwitting repubbies voted with their masters.
Toon loved to play voter suppression, he must be grinning ear to ear as Obama has played this to perfection. millions of Republican-inclined folk will be nowhere to be seen next November.
This is why we need Rob Maness to defeat Mary Moon landfill Landrieu.
“Congress has passed a government spending plan without resorting to last-minute brinkmanship such as midnight negotiations to prevent an imminent government shutdown.”
