Senate to take up $1.1T bill to keep govt running

[John 3_19-21]

D.C. is merely showing the newly elected congress critters who is really in charge.

[freeangel]

Where is the /s marker?

[hawkaw]

What happens if they elect a conservative to be on the ticket?

Are you still out?

[Norm Lenhart]

Didn’t think it was needed. Should have been obvious.

Who the hell is Elizabeth Warren?

A Senator from Occupy Wall Street, er, I mean Massachusetts.

Hey if, Cruz is always identified as aligned with the right-populist TEA Party, shouldn't Warren always be identified as aligned with the left-populist Occupy Wall Street movement that idolizes her?

So there's no misunderstanding, I often say it like this:

Off, OFF Damned Sarcasm! Lol

[b4its2late]

Makes sense to me.

[b4its2late]

Ha...

[Norm Lenhart]

I understand people reading my post and being pissed. “I” am pissed because the drivel like that is why we have this mess now. And the people responsible for spreading it, the ones who were serious about it, are simply nowhere to be found lately.

But they will be back when the emotion of the moment dies down and start it up all over again.

[Blue Turtle]

Government shutdown is a MYTH ! Welfare checks keep getting shipped out and now NEW benefits to illegal aliens. woohoo!! God Bless America.

[Truth29]

The sarcasm was obvious and you are absolutely right. There needs to be radical surgery on DC, be it a successful third party or the city falling into a fiery pit after Obama has weakened us enough that our external enemies mount a successful attack, or the country simply goes Road Warrior after the last straw and a collapse of civil society. Our internal enemies are doing a bang up job as it is. Boehner needs to pay a very big personal price for what he did last night, but he is likely still sleeping off his celebration instead.

[Norm Lenhart]

I’m betting Road Warrior for a time. That has a silver lining though. Liberals won’t do well in the world they created.

Small consolation. But since its all we got, I’ll take it.

[SpeakerToAnimals]

It’s the most important election ever.

You don't actually believe that do you? You sound like an NRA fundraising letter. That dog don't hunt.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Who the hell is Elizabeth Warren?

Your next President, by the looks of how this is shaking out.

[Zenjitsuman]

You will wind up with a GOPe candidate if the GOP C conservatives don’t run their own separate debates, caucuses and convention and pick 1 one candidate.

Romney only got 1/3 a third of the vote, and won many state primaries because there were 8 eight conservatives, like Knute, Rick, Herman, Michelle, Portman, Perry, etc.

Stop letting them select one candidate like Mitt by the conservatives selecting their own candidate.

[Norm Lenhart]

No I don’t. Read down a couple more posts.

[Steamburg]

Gruber is very right, Americans are very stupid and easily lied to. If Fauxahauntus (Liz Warren) wins this one and gets credit for killing the bill outright in the Senate or just stripping out the GOP Pork. You can fasten your seat belts because she will likely be President Warren in 2017. God help us all!

[Norm Lenhart]

We could if the left wing of the Right win would stop HELPING the GOP tank them. Every idiot that posted here, and said elsewhere ‘we gotta win ‘no matter what’ simply set the stage for people to sooth their conscience and vote RINO.

And before anyone brings it up, yes Palin said it and I, a devout Palinista, said at the time she was 100% wrong to do it.

The ‘lesser evil’ meme is the same thing. It gives people an easy out to a moral call. Lesser evil now fills DC. Except it ain’t lesser anymore. It’s greater. Such is the way evil goes.

[b4its2late]

Nah

[sport]

I would not bet against it assuming he leaves office. The people ordained Obama to be their messiah.

Never bet against the stupidity of the voters that refer to themselves as Americans.
