Finally, and as expected, it contains language requiring a payment of $174,000 to the widow of Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-N.J.), who died in June at age 89.
And how much was he worth when he assumed room temperature?

Something like $56 million.
What Mike lee is saying on twitter.
It appears that this fight will end the same way #Obamacare began: in a last-minute back-room deal forced on Congress & the American people.
sounds like there are lots of surprises for tomorrow.

Politico/Levin claims that Debt Ceiling increases will be automatic unless Congress can override obama’s veto of the Congress’ lack of approval.

The Senate Conservatives Fund quickly called that language the "Kentucky Kickback," and said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) secured that as the price of his support for the bill.And how much of the Kentucky Kickback will flow directly and indirectly into old McConnell's coffers???

it's more than that close to $1 trillion dollars in this stupid deal
you hold the line , never surrender you fight to the last man.
but boner and the rest surrender when the media creates a fake crisis “default” . there was never any chance of default.
bohner is a craven coward so is anyone that could have stopped this but didn't

The only solution left is Mark Levin’s solution. Maybe not the only solution but it is the only solution left that will not lead to WAR!

Never look to the obvious with these people. The sellout happened after the EBT craziness on Saturday. Obama called them to the WH on Friday and told them that they will do as he says. All at once, any House bill vanished and no vote was taken after Friday.
Saturday happened, an EBT taste of what Obama will do. The GOP was probably told that the next time they, and the Tea Party would be blamed for no EBT.
Come Monday morning, GOP meets, deal done to okay Senate sell out. And don’t forget those EBT letters sent to states talking about another EBT threat, that was the clincher. Proof that Obama would actually do it.

It does so by allowing President Obama to waive the debt ceiling,
a move that can be overridden by a resolution of disapproval by
Congress that Obama could still veto. It's a coup de grâce...so what's the use of the House of Representatives?...
..so Usama's *itch McConnell & John "*HIC!*" Boehmer are dancin' / singin' @ the White Hut."

I am sure that Mrs. Lautenberg is a lovely person, but she is richer than Midas. Frank Lautenberg was worth about $100,000,000 when he died. Why to the hard pressed taxpayers have to kick in another $174,000 for his widow?
This is chump change to her, but real money to you or me.
