Any rule with Robert Byrd’s name attached
is not a rule worth obeying.

Just goes to show you the communists Democrats are trying to kill America. They will try to pull every trick to kill the tax plan and will do it if we let them. Ignore their BS and go to a vote in the Senate.

It’s a KKK Racis’ Rule. Pin that on as the tail of the donkeys.

Just when I thought our team couldn’t suck any more.

What the H is up with Ryan and the House?

Holy Cow Batman!


This has nothing to do with the house. They did everything right. The Senate rules state that that you can only have majority votes on appropriations bills. So there were two small things in the bill that were deemed not appropriations. So they will be crossed out and the bill will be voted on in the senate and then again in the house.

re: autocorrect

Can you not turn it off in the settings?

I have my tablet/smartphone/browsers set to show/underline possible misspellings but not to autocorrect them.

99% maybe, but WE owe the Senator. He stopped GWB's first amnesty attempt in late 2001/early 2002 on a 'technicality'.

The point is, the leadership of the House should know this.

The bill should have been presented so that it was officially done with today. It’s just one more delay.

WE are 48 hours from the end of business for the year.

This crap is infuriating. After the second House vote, will the Senate have to vote on it a second time, as well?

Geez...

The Ami-Pro Word Processing s/w of decades ago was WAY smarter in providing educated correction options (spelling, word choice, grandma, etc).

How far we have fallen.

So, is this little Brady’s fault?

Maybe he shouldn’t be Chairman, if so?

The US don’t owe Robert KKK Byrd squat.

The US Gov’t has paid W. Va. multiple times over.

The title of the bill, for one, is not in compliance.
