“they have literally resorted to accusing me of not caring about kids with cancer.”

The point of the exercise is to eliminate the House of Representatives

I think that fact has finally taken hold in the House Leadership.

They must fight or die

After Dingy Harry refused to pass evena clean bill fully funding the NIH so that kids with cancer could receive treatment, I knew that the Rats were only going to demand that they get their way and give up nothing.

And it was CNN’s Dana Bash who asked the question! And Reid then scolded her for asking it............if the Media would EVER tell the truth about the Dems, the Dems would never get near another elective office!

I was reading the article about the Obama administration hiring fake SEIU protesters to protest against the government shut down at the DC memorials.

http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2013/10/02/exclusive-video-mcdonalds-employee-admits-being-paid-15-to-protest-ww2-veterans/

As I read it, I was thinking, How low can he go, how low can Obama go and was wondering if someone could create a picture of Obama going under a limbo pole that we could use every time Obama pulls one of these stunts?

Senator Harry Reid ✔ @SenatorReid Republicans are in such desperate straits that they have literally resorted to accusing me of not caring about kids with cancer. Shameful

Well, the dumbarse Reid said it point blank that he didn’t care about a kid with cancer. He had bigger things to worry about.

I think Boehner gets it. He said “Sooner or later you have to let the system the Founders gave us work.”

Another day, another day with the public not noticing much difference with the government closed...

...and another day where the attention whores were all wrong about the GOP quickly caving.

KEEP IT SHUT DOWN!

“Fox reported that 93% of the EPA were non-essential and have been sent home.”

Yup, that's a good example of government waste. 93% of the EPA are UNNECESSARY!

Resident Obama’s 70-minute White House meeting late Wednesday afternoon with congressional leaders, an effort to break the stalemate over the partial government shutdown, did nothing to help end the impasse.

What!!! the halo?

I meant the point that bert made, not the idea of eliminating the House of Representatives!
