“MSNBC’s Chris Hayes: The Problem is He was Born with a (very small) Penis”

Well, like I always say..”when you are standing on the mountaintop, everything looks small”

He’s not going to remove it, just ignore it. And there will be no consequences.

Frankly, I think his talk of “invoking the 14th Amendment” (which, in addition to some good things, gives emergency governing powers that are pretty scary) is obviously a warm-up and the MSM is coordinating with him on this.

The guy (subjective) is such a puss. As long as he’s broadcasting the talking points he’s ok. The minute anyone asks a guestion He stutters, stammers, and squeals like a little school girl. He should always be ridiculed and then ignored.

I’m sure he was neutered long time ago.

This guy makes Les Nessman look like a lumberjack.

With generations of non-deliberative ignoramuses raised in, and issuing forth from, public schools, one wonders how long this grand design of a Constitutional Republic can last.

The Constitution is the Charter of the United States.
No Constitution - no Charter - no United States.

“You are only partially correct in this.”

Minor issue. Congress has not passed a budget.

The president is not required to submit a budget, though that has become common practice.

MSNBC is not a news channel

It is a leftwing extremist talk channel

There are plenty of checks on the executive, its just that they stopped using them decades ago and using them now is considered extremist

Of course nothing in the Constitution gives him the power to raise the debt ceiling unilaterally, not even hinting at it

Hayes was cheering the recalled democrats in colorado as bravly willing to sacrifice themselves “for the cause”.

Hayes is a fool. Eliminate the constitution and Hayes is the first one against the wall in an obama administration. (communists kill their own first)

I understand why you would say that but you are wrong about there not being a push back. Just watch and see if he does it. There will be every legal avenue possible used and if that fails...

This is quickly becoming a Big Media meme.

Listening to People’s Radio in the car yesterday. The host was interviewing some pundit.

Host ask how can a minority in Congress thwart the will of the majority.

Pundit explains to him how the rules of Congress enable this.

Host asks Can’t someone take this to court?

Pundit patiently explains that the court would not want to interfere with the rules of Congress.

Host asks so what do you suggest? A Constitutional Amendment?

I am 100% sure this host would bristle and vehemently deny he had a bias or even a vested point of view.

Actually, the President is required by law to submit a budget every year, normally the first Monday in February. We have always done this as long as I’ve participated in the process, but sometimes, like during the change in administrations, the process gets delayed until March or April, and one year, until May. The Congress has usually passed Continuing Resolutions, which limit what we can do in the Executive Branch, but they’ve also passed full year appropriations later. There is no requirement to pass a CR, nor to pass all of the appropriations that are needed in the form of an Omnibus. The House can pass each appropriation (there are 12 or 13, I don’t remember exactly) and send them individually to the Senate. The only Constitutional requirement is that all spending bills originate in the House.

This guy is a morn, but at least he’s open and honest about it. The rest of the left agrees with him, but they try to hide it.
