Well there you go. Haven't gotten the list of "no's" yet but I am sure we will soon. 63 is Filibuster proof. Rand Paul gave an effort but failed big time. Nothing new with Republican show offs lately.

The entire fedgov is now rogue.
I have an extremely uncomfortable feeling that the U.S.A.’s clock is at about 23:59:55.

The bill is aimed at averting a debt default, avoiding a partial government shutdown and setting spending priorities giving Valerie Jarrett a blank check for the next two years.

Fixed.

And the Republican establishment wonders why the base doesn't buy their bullshit anymore.

This is the "budget" plan that shifts IOUs from the SS retirement fund to the SS disability fund.

I guess that saves them from having to print up new IOUs.

Don’t worry. All we need to do is keep voting every two years.

35 R’s vote nay and 18 vote yay. Looks like about a third of the house and senate may as well switch party.

Republican defense hawks - that title should be one of shame. They’re tax and spenders. We don’t have a good Defense Department, systems or military. What a joke.

Folks, I had to vote ‘yes’ for this garbage bill or else the entire military would collapse and the foe is at our door.

What a joke.

We have the most moronic, turn coat, liars, distrustful, socialistic, azzholes in congress claiming to be republicans in the history of the party.

With this one vote and only one vote they have taken away major compaign items republicans run on. Debt spending, increased taxes, stealing SS, funding murder of babies, proper budgeting, etc. What the heck are we going to campaign on in 2016?

"In a rare late-night session, the Senate gave final approval to an ambitious budget and debt deal early Friday, sending it to President Barack Obama to sign. "

This is really the Lets-make-the-2016-election-solely-about social-issues-by-removing-any-news-about-spending" bill.

Hillary should give Obama,The Dems and RINOs a big wet kiss.

The story gets even worse. Of the NO votes, the vast majority were show votes for the senators in more conservative states.

Take a good hard look folks. This is what showing up to vote in 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014 has gotten us: a late night vote to extend planned infanticide and to give harry, barry, and nancy everything else they wanted.

But be sure to vote because somehow, some way, and contrary to decades of evidence.. Next Time Will Be Different.

Why did we even vote in Republicans?

This makes it imperative we get an outsider as our candidate. Otherwise it’s business as usual.

The GOP twits knew how to stop Cruz and Paul from Filibustering. By passing this right when they were busy going to a debate and unable to get back in time to do anything.

They only got back in time for the vote. They weren’t allowed a chance to speak. And have become mired in trying to fix the debates. SO they were not able to do anything but vote.

How in the world did they get 63 votes to end debate after just hours?

Aren’t there 53 or 54 republican Senators...something like that.

To get 63 that means that they had to have something like 10 Senators peel off right from the get-go.

This is not a conservative party. It is an embarrassment.

Within 15 years, and that’s with interest rates staying extremely low 2% or less, the nation will be borrowing as much as it takes in to pay for an ever growing federal budget. OR, they will have to double taxes.

Either way, they will kill the goose, and it will be all downhill from that point onward.

The end of the USA as we know it in 15 years, if this isn’t stopped. After that, we become a crumbling civilization of peons and aristocracy.
