Sen. McConnell On 2000-Page Omnibus Bill: "No One Has Seen It"

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) says Democrats have not shown Republicans the almost 2000-page omnibus page.

McConnell says the lame-duck Congress should pass a short-term budget and not the current $1.1 trillion bill.

So what are you, and the GOP Senate caucus, going to do about it, Mitch?

This is why I just bought a sailboat and am provisioning for a 5 year cruise. This mess is unfixable.

They have to pass it to find out what’s in it.

Worthless bass turds.

You can watch the place crater from a safe distance, but eventually you'll need to tag up with the real world again.

Maybe-maybe not. I am old. The only hope I see is for the States to assert their power. Hoping for a change in the Federal system is Moronic in my opinion. Only if 34 states get a brain and call a con-con can the madness be stopped.

Obama said many times, “Hey, the bill isn’t even written yet.” That’s how the Democrats do things. McConnell should “slow walk” the whole thing till time runs out.

Good plan, and not the first such I've heard discussed.

It might just all settle out in one or two, but you can bet it will all look a lot different in five, no matter where you land.

I wish I hadn’t watched the video and instead simply stuck my head in the sand. This made me physically ill.

If our side can’t or won’t stop this, then in my view, it is time for 10+ million patriots to march on Washington.

“it is time for 10+ million patriots to march on Washington.”

They are the PRODUCTIVE people with jobs, and family obligations.

I have written both of my senators and pleaded with them to vote against the current bill on the budget. It seems that the GOP leadership still has not gotten the message. People did not vote for Republicans, they voted for Conservatives. We should never forget those that voted to pass this bill.

Stop the bill. The people spoke on Nov 2nd. The Consent of the Governed is your reason. Show some goshdarned backbone Mitchm and for God’s sake don’t cry.

I know. It wouldn’t be easy nor is it desirable. I am probably too pi$$ed off right now to be talking like that, but something simply has to break.
