But then the so-called men in charge of the GOP are running around “Wearing Women’s Underwear” ....

And two that do wear women's underwear have shown to have a bigger set than most of the GOP. (Palin-Bachman)

” their overused “breaking news” and “Fox News Alert” crapola? “

They ‘jumped the shark’ on that years ago, when they started doing “Fox News Alert” break-ins to tell us, “No new Developments...”

We are only one half of a third of the government. We cannot afford to make deals.

What ever happened to the 72 hour rule, for a bill to be on line prior to voting and signing?

FU Boehner and you RINOs

the marxists will do ANYTHING to get their goals accomplished. The Rs can’t even stomach a shutdown... can’t even ask individuals to pay for their own abortions... can’t even defund the unconstitutional actions of the EPA...

I hope i’m wrong.

Agree, we're out of time for making deals. We've got to make substantial cuts and NOW. That's said, a number of respected economists predict it's already too late.

I do not want to be the smart man. Not the noose tying one, not the one to fit the noose.
I just want to face the breeze, and smack the horse on the @ss.

9.16pm: Politico also has news of deal, in heavily hedged terms:

The threat of a government shutdown diminished late Friday night after White House and congressional negotiators reached agreement on controversial policy riders in the stalled government funding measure, and closed in on a final compromise on cuts around $40 billion.

If there isn’t a shutdown of the federal government, then it will mean FAILURE for, both, the GOP and “the advancement of true conservatism”. The U.S. will become a third world “mess”, if leftist domination of U.S. politics doesn’t come to an actual end, asap.

This is all because the Democrats were too cowardly to pass their budget when they could pass anything they wanted. Shut it down.
