[Alas Babylon!]

The vote showed us one of two things. Either:

A: They are terribly fearful and feckless, afraid of losing another budget showdown and being smeared by the media for “shutting down the government” OR

B: They really don’t mind the huge deficit, or Obama’s priorities, and have real disdain for the conservative/TEA party’s call for fiscal restrain and rolling back of the federal behemoth.

I used to believe in “A”, but right now, I’m starting to lean towards “B”...

My take

1. Cowards

2. Impostors who like to spend other peoples money who know that they can get away with it by promising enough to get re elected

Trump would fire the majority of them if they were doing this in one of his businesses where the end result was loss with no real plan to recover minus the fake 10 year from now projections.

I’m not blaming the rank and file members in either of the house or senate. I blame leadership.We deserve much better and have to get rid of bad leaders.

I choose B. No doubt whatsoever in my mind about any of it. And much more. Our Arkansas Congressman Westerman emailed us to say he voted against the budget bill. Also he said that neither debate or amendments were permitted. Now democrat leadership boasts that no poison pills were in the bill and it was a huge win for them and Obama. The whole bill was a poison pill for the American people. We thank Congressman Westerman for standing his ground and we will certainly support his relection in 2016.

"What difference does it make?" Either way, they've demonstrated that they're unworthy of future support
