So Massie will manage to give the Dems the talking point that the GOP has delayed the relief. The bill is full of evil stuff that the Dems have dreamed of and McConnell and the President have already endorsed it so it is going to pass. Massie is simply going to blow it up for hours or a day and allow the Dems to blame the Republicans.
Pork is Forever.
I am as conservative as anyone can be.....but the overwhelming majority of Americans that are suffering deserve more then “Well that’s the way it is, sorry”!!! Those millions of Americans that are suffering are the same Americans that become the protectors of our great nation, the heroes of our nation, the brothers & sisters that look out for their other American brothers and sisters.
The restaurant industry is suffering, tourism is suffering, the airlines might as well be grounded, the cruise ships are dead in the water. Small businesses of all sorts are either dead or dying!!! The Gigantic American economic machine needs these people employed, and their industries working and generating cash and expansion.
You.....of course are fully entitled to your opinion...but when I stand by and witness the millions of USA dollars that are handed out to illegal people that do not belong in this great country, I get upset and heartbroken. Yes, Charity begins at home with the American family. POTUS, Trump is right on target...IMHO!!! Congress...pass the Trump recovery bill today!!! I am sorry that I disagree with you on this one. but...I always call things the way I see “em!!!
While anyone one of us may object to the bill on various grounds, this story has little “meat” to it in my view, because it cannot provide any particular known reason the one House GOP member may “go rogue” on the bill. Minus that important point, the whole matter is all about process and procedure and not any principle judgement about the bill.
One can believe the Bible or not, but this is true,,,,”The borrower is slave to the lender”. We just sold our children into slavery,making void 230 years of freedom and lberty. They will never be free again. Most people see a $1200 CHECK. They don’t even rememberr the starving , shoeless men ar Valley Forge, or the marine ores at IwoJima who died by the thousands or the American armies in Korea or Viet Nam or Iraq or Syria. My God, we as a nation have lost our way. No, we didn’t become a communist nation with a fighting revolution. The progressives (slow motion communism) didn’t take us there. We defeated ourselves with a 2.2trillion bet so some could a Big Mac and a $500 pair of Adidas tennis shoes. We surrendered our God-given right to liberty with the soon decision to set at naught life. We go out with a whimper in exchange for misperceived security. We exchange perceived security for liberty. Franklin said we deserve neither. and so it is.
