No one has seen the bill yet.

Why would you post that?

A tea party caucus house R (Mike Lee)got it at 2am and read it.

He reported on it early this morning on the fox show with hemmer and that nasal conderitti woman.

He found the tax hikes.

He also mentioned the rule they passed over that it was promised no bill would go for a vote until it had been available for 3 days.

It's a dem Pelosi tactic, if you want to know what is in the bill you have to pass it first.

Worked for Obamacare.

All this scare tactic stuff, defund the military and don't pay seniors, what a crock.

They could cut about a trillion in waste and redundancy today if they wanted to.

The GOP isn't much better than the dems.

The democrats remind me of a thief who puts a knife in your ribs and demands you wallet and watch. When you hand them over, he stabs you in the neck and leaves you for dead. The pubbies are the thief who puts a knife in your back and demands your wallet but tells you you can keep your watch so you can get to work. The he cuts your foot off so the walk to work gets tougher. Bith are thieves, both injure you, but one wants you to keep supporting the society while the other wants it all to end.
