If con is the opposite of pro, then Congress is the opposite of progress.

PING!

They should send the blank to the president who can insert anything he wants then sign it. I know it sounds stupid but this simplifies the process that they have been using.

Or they could get drug tested and turn themselves in to rehab and I don’t mean the nice one at the Hard Rock.

Compliments of the ill-conceived 17th Amendment.

McConnell refuses to attach delay to hand off Internet. Congress is running out the clock on this. MSM not reporting a word on it, another conspiracy to silence the American people.

Too bad — I was hoping for a shutdown. Look what happened after the last one!

I’m waiting for someone to appoint a horse to the senate. Nothing could be less apropos.

This sounds just as bad as the House's deeming a bill to have passed.

Can there be a situation where the Senate votes on a bill before it receives it, and then the House deems and passes the bill that it never voted on directly?
