Pelosi: Democrats should vote against spending bill if doesn't reflect their 'values'
Washington Examiner ^ | 12/20/17 | Al Weaver

Posted on 12/25/2017 1:59:30 PM PST by Libloather

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., is urging House Democrats to vote against a spending bill to fund the government if it does not include funding for Democratic priorities.

"House and Senate Democratic Leadership has continued to insist on parity in the CAPS, which we insist should include funding for opioids, veterans, pensions, NIH, and support for the DREAM Act," Pelosi wrote in a letter to Democrats. "Unless we see a respect for our values and priorities, we continue to urge a strong NO on the Continuing Resolution."

Commie ‘RAT “values” suck. They are commie “values”. If the spending bill DOES reflect their “values”, AMERICANS should vote against it. Piss on Pelosi.

Those in her district should be calling her candidacy petition renewal of license to steal. She’s made millions off of that office.

The leftist values? They declare they’re proud of hairy 40 year old men when the hump on each other, then throw parades for them and light up the White House in homo colors. They bring in millions of illegal aliens while looting the tax payers at gun point to subsidize them, on and on.

Their values reek like a week old homicide scene. Eff their values.

Great idea Nancy. A day with the government shut down is a good day.

“Just shut the gubmint down. I guarantee that ‘rat voters will care more about it being shut down than anybody I know would.”

And how about a daily income tax credit paid to the individual taxpayers for each and every day the government is shut down. And in addition, no retroactive paychecks for government employees. They are virtually all RATs who won’t be voting for Trump or the Republicans, so screw ‘em.

That's not likely to end well...

Even if their "values" are saturated with ignorance, insanity, neverending rage and certifiable psychopaties?

Will "normals" eventually have to be housed in special camps out in the wilderness?

This article is 5 days old. The continuing resolution already passed, and Pelosi’s blathering was irrelevant.

Who's kidding who here?

The government NEVER shuts down, budget shut-down or not. Never.

Essential and even many non-essential parts of the federal government just keep humming along like nothing's happened.

And I think the public pretty much knows this by now too. This whole government shut-down thing has been in the news regularly for years.

So this is just all kabuki theater. One side threatens. The other side threatens. One side finally blinks and we're back in business.

Eventually the government will start to dance again because that's the machine that creates the power and wealth for these politicians to suck off of.

This time, the Republicans have a good chance to lay any shutdown on the laps of the democRATS, but I'm afraid they'll screw that one up too and get blamed themselves. Just like always.

The GOP is not good at the RATS' game.

"Democrat Values" huh? Well, seems as good a pretext as any to offer my new song: Grandma Got Groped by a Politician Grandma got groped by a politician Sometime back in '72 or '73 You can say there's no such thing as scandals But her hush money still comes regularly She'd been at this swanky party Just out of Yale and full of life But she forgot who was in office And ended up in a closet with this guy When she came home early the next morning She hid the evidence of the attack It was a different time and place And she couldn't bear them whispering behind her back Grandma got groped by a politician Sometime back in '72 or '73 You can say there's no such thing as scandals But her hush money still comes regularly Still she recovered and married grandpa Very quickly after that Still he barely managed to hold his anger When he learned just where the money was from It's become an open secret in our family We kids just don't know who it was But sometimes we do wonder That Uncle Phil somehow looks like a Kennedy Sing it with us Grandpa! Grandma got groped by a politician Sometime back in '72 or '73 You can say there's no such thing as scandals But her hush money still comes regularly Grandpa: Now you kids just mind your business, okay?

Do they ever think of their constituents other than at election time?

Unless we see a respect for our values and priorities, we continue to urge a strong NO on the Continuing Resolution.

By "values and priorities" I assume she means those found in the Communist Manifesto.

“Democrat Values” huh?

(Also, something happened to my formatting)

Well, seems as good a pretext as any to offer my new song:

Grandma Got Groped by a Politician

Grandma got groped by a politician
Sometime back in ‘72 or ‘73
You can say there’s no such thing as scandals
But her hush money still comes regularly

She’d been at this swanky party
Just out of Yale and full of life
But she forgot who was in office
And ended up in a closet with this guy

When she came home early the next morning
She hid the evidence of the attack
It was a different time and place
And she couldn’t bear them whispering behind her back

Grandma got groped by a politician
Sometime back in ‘72 or ‘73
You can say there’s no such thing as scandals
But her hush money still comes regularly

Still she recovered and married grandpa
Very quickly after that
Still he barely managed to hold his anger
When he learned just where the money was from

It’s become an open secret in our family
We kids just don’t know who it was
But sometimes we do wonder
That Uncle Phil somehow looks like a Kennedy

Sing it with us Grandpa!

Grandma got groped by a politician
Sometime back in ‘72 or ‘73
You can say there’s no such thing as scandals
But her hush money still comes regularly

Grandpa: Now you kids just mind your business, okay?
