Well, just remember - when you have to rely on Democrats to kill something Obama really wants, it ain’t gonna stay dead very long. This won’t be a permanent victory, I’m afraid.
I was smiling for a week after, and still do from time to time.
Term limits are in the hands of voters.
Cantor’s ejection should have started a tidalwave of weasels being tossed.
It’s still such a great deal the public must be protected from knowing what is in the 800 page bill.
WOW!!! 2/3 of the Republicans voted NO!
It’s rather simple. The US Communist party, the Democrats, and the GOP elites are on one team and the conservative working Americans are on the other. The Libertarians switch black and forth.
Nice post but RINOs seem to have the worst hearing of all political animals.
True, but sadly, I think the republicans are going to double down tomorrow.
Memo to Ryan: The US is unreliable on the international stage due to the crappy leadership in power.
This bill is not supposed to cost US workers jobs. What they just voted down is economic help for the workers who lose jobs because of the bill.
Isn't that enough for ANYONE to not vote for this monstrosity?
I never thought that Pelosi would look better than Ryan.
Nancy Pelosi is waiting for the Crows to start shouting ,”Nancy Pelosi for Speaker” ,LOL
...”I never thought that Pelosi would look better than Ryan”...
That in itself should have told people ....bait was set.
Or they sweeten the deal and bring that back up in the House. The second one is my hunch.

Yep, you’re right. The fix is in. This was not a defeat; just a minor setback. Another version will be passed in short order after all the right people have been bought off.
Yes, NAFTA did no favors for Mexico or the US. To mask the problems in Mexico we’ve simply imported their peon population here.
Unlikely. The Senate doesnt want to deal with it again.

Mitch will do whatever Obama tells him to do.
"Pelosi noted that Democrats have traditionally backed TAA, but sided with liberals in her conference who argued a vote against the program was the only way to stop fast-track. If TAA slows down the fast track, Im prepared to vote against TAA," Pelosi said."
Yep, if something seems too good to be true....
Me either, I’m so confused. Boy or girl - DEM or Republican - everything is upside down. Maybe the DEMS want to get back into the good graces of the voting public, and know that the Republicans are sealing their fate in Congress by acting like the Dems usually act. I dunno - I just dunno.
You are right, that way they have roll calls to show everyone pro and con.
