Amazing how much the news media knows. How could we ever doubt them?

First of all, Boner should have said “Reid? You insult me again I’m kickin’ your ass. And Obama? You insult me again and I’m kickin’ Carney’s ass. Nazi Pelosi? My wife will kick your stretchy ass.”

There are three options and two of them are bad. Raise the debt limit and don’t fund obamacare. Don’t raise the debt limit but fund obamacare. If one happens, we default. If the other happens we’re looking at millions more out of work and those who are working will be working part time along with hyperinflation.

The third option is the republicans win and maybe this country will survive another year.

bozo knew by saying he would not talk that it looked bad thus he goes on this little charade so as to now say he tried to talk and get an agreement.

Only a fool would have thought there would be an agreement with bozo.

Never mind the false dilemma he presented of choosing between the one kid and 1,100 people at Nellis AFB that he really cares nothing about anyhow.

And odds are that quite a few of those 1,100 people have a family member with cancer. And from what I gather, this was about a group of children. Not just one.

“If you think the press is silly about the shutdown, wait until the debt limit is reached - they’ll be apoplectic.”

The more they squeal, the less people listen. It becomes like white noise in the background.

Can’t wait for the apoplexy to begin.

that’s funny the coverage I just watched on CNN had Harry Reid saying he didn’t care if one child died of cancer, he wasn’t going to pass funding unless it includes funding for Obamacare.

The most evil vile thing I have EVER heard a politician say in my entire life and it came from the Democratic majority leader of the Senate and was on CNN.

Not a single Pubbie should have attended that meeting.
“Negotiate NOTHING. Force it to stay shut down for months if necessary. Odongo and dingy hairy own this and they’re starting to feel the heat. Keep it down, till the communist/muslim POS crawls on his belly begging and groveling for a deal to end it. They OWN it!!! Pubbies, if you don’t have the stomach for it, hire PUTIN!!! Odongo is scared spitless of him.

Senator Harry Reid ✔ @SenatorReid Republicans are in such desperate straits that they have literally resorted to accusing me of not caring about kids with cancer. Shameful.

And the Democrats blamed Romney for some guy's wife dying of cancer. Boo frickin' woo, Harry.

Want me to bring up the ads of Bush pushing old people off a cliff???

Btu I bet they blamed the last shutdown entirely on Republicans just as much in the media that people did see. Which is often considered a key factor in the 1996 election results (where not only Clinton won but to my understanding more than a few Republicans got destroyed in the elections).

The ultimate point is to eliminate both houses and govern alone, he wants Americans to beg him to dissolve both! Mark my words...
