What a relief to know that Sheila is on the job.

She might even be able to get her face in front of the camera.

[Sequoyah101]

She can manage the face but the rest of her.

So, how will all these calamities happen? Talk about a party hack. The woman couldn’t find her big butt with a flashlight.

[Army Air Corps]

Sheila can barely tell you what day of this week it is let alone discuss anything of great substance. I have watched her during interviews and she is a trainwreck.

[mylife]

What a piece of work this cretin is.

Going deeper in debt only enriches the creditor.

Did the Mars rover ever find the place where the Apollo 11 Astronauts landed?

Houston congresswoman joins debt ceiling debate

In other words, the village idiot returns.

[Mariner]

Hmmm.

Cut $1.5 trillion of annual spending (10% of GDP) out of the economy and what the commie Congresswoman says is true.

Sadly America will not endure cuts like this.

We'll borrow until nobody will loan to us...or until our money is so worthless as to bring calamity anyway.

Either way the end game is complete financial destruction.

[Soothesayer9]

"If we allow the debt ceiling not to be raised, the calamity in Houston, the fourth largest city is the nation, along with our major financial centers will be felt. People will be laid off."

Lemmings gonna lem.

This thread is perfect without pictures...

[Grams A]

This thread is perfect without pictures...”

Amen to that. The Congresswoman’s mug shot ranks right up there with MO and Helen. Can’t wait to hear Michael on the radio tomorrow - sure he’ll have another fun dedication to her. We truly don’t want anyone to Mess with Texas but surely there is another state that would love to have her.

Beyond the valley of the super stupid

[Dawgreg]

Just damn. Thought I’d drop by on my way to bed and see what was up and I happen upon this thread. Now I’m gonna have nightmares FCOL! (”)

[Robwin]

A Houston congresswoman says she is headed back to Washington D.C. to get involved in the debt ceiling debate.

Hallelujah! The Republic is saved!

[oldbrowser]

Okay, here is my plan for higher taxes.
All elected politicians in Washington DC will pay a 100% of any income over 250,000/year and 100% of any assets over 1,000,000. That includes the earnings of the spouse. That way we would know that they really believe in shared sacrifice.

[freekitty]

Good Grief.

[BobP]

''I'm all about spending dat Obama money.''

[freekitty]

Don’t forget this woman has actually demanded to be driven across the street in a Mercedes Benz.

[chuckles]

...."In other words, the village idiot returns."....

No, in other words, they aren't really serious about doing anything.

When they said to bring out the "big guns", I think they had something else in mind. They thought "Big" means BIG.

If I were the Repubs, I would walk out when she walked in. Maybe a little chortle as I walked out the door.

[Dapper 26]

As I heard it explained, government takes in $200 billion a day and debt obligations - Bonds, principally - is $20 billion. Pay the military, Social Security, Medicare and Midicade and we still have tons left over.

[Kickass Conservative]

It's $200 Billion A MONTH, ($2.4 Trillion a year), if that.

Problem is, Barry wants to keep spending $3.8 Trillion a year.
