“Unfortunately, included in Speaker Boehner’s offer was an unrelated demand that a portion of the Affordable Care Act be repealed
Hmmmmmmmmm.....
“Hmmmmmmmmm.....”
I think that was the part where the government was supposed to pay for long term care for everyone.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.:
“Speaker Boehner’s adult moment is long overdue.
Man, she needs to be put in her place. Why do republicans take this crap?
Reid was chosen to talk about corporate jets. I wish Boehner would come out and say “We’re all for killing the corporate jet deduction. Now, will you get onto something else?”
Love that.
We are all awaiting Ms. Pelosi’s human moment.
“Interesting comment by Hoyer here:
“Unfortunately, included in Speaker Boehner’s offer was an unrelated demand that a portion of the Affordable Care Act be repealed”
Thank you for bringing this wonderful nugget to light. It looked like nobody in DC was working for repeal. This is truly excellent news.
They finally may have cut off the blood flow.
Boner should say, well we started by grounding Pelosi’s free jet. Zer0’s is next on the list, just after the Wookie’s.
God only asks for 10% tithe. Obama thinks he and the government are more important than God.
That would be scary if it wasn’t real.
I called every number for Speaker Boehner I could find and all message boxes were full (I pray they are full of thanks).
I tried to email and then fax him, all to no avail.
I turned to Rep Cantor. When I finally reached a not full message box, it was for someone else’s voice mail. I wanted to leave a thank you but when I started to speak, I became very teary.
I left a blubbering - I thank the Republican leadership for standing tough. I thank you on behalf of my husband and myself. I thank you on behalf of my children and I especially thank you on behalf of my grandchildren. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
The rhetoric about the rhetoric is so typical. BOHICA forever more....
We don’t want to kill the corporate jet deduction. It’s a bonafide business expense, just like any other form of travel expense. Where does the gubmint draw the line? There are numerous luxury-type modes of travel.
Do we take away custom land-cruiser RV’s from rock stars because they’re expensive and get poor fuel efficiency?
Do we close down all FBO’s because airplanes are expensaive and therefore should not get an expense deduction?
Just make the gubmit spend according to the constitution and all will be well. All this talk about corporate jets is subterfuge and attempted class-envy generation by idiot dims!
“The markets have made clear that a short-term extension is not sufficient and would result in very serious consequences.”
But one thats gets us just past BO’s reelection will. BO must have had his hand up steny’s backside saying this.
I do not understand why it is not being talked about that Reid stopped the discussion on CCB today and would not let it come to the floor to be discussed
Colonel West did not take any crap from the DNC chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Who would want to work with such vile, despicable cretins?
It's more of the same Rat pablum: Big Oil, Corporate Jets, Millionaires, scaring old people and the Children.
Guy goes into a bar, there's a robot bartender.
The robot says, "What will you have?" The guy says, "Martini." The robot brings back the best martini ever and says to the man, "What's your IQ?" The guy says, "168". The robot then proceeds to talk about physics, space exploration and medical technology.
The guy leaves, but he is curious, so he goes back into the bar. The robot bartender says," What will you have?" The guy says, "Martini". Again, the robot makes a great martini, gives it to the man and says, "What's your IQ?" The guy says, "100." The robot then starts to talk about NASCAR, Budweiser and John Deere tractors.
The guy leaves, but finds it very interesting, so he thinks he will try it one more time. He goes back into the bar. The robot says, "What will you have?" The guy says, "Martini", and the robot brings him another great martini. The robot then says, "What's your IQ?" The guy says, "Uh, about 50." The robot leans in real close and says, "So, you people still happy you voted for Obama?"
