In case this was ever in doubt this bill proves beyond all question that the elites, not the people run America. The only difference between the D and R leadership is the letter after their name, and both have a small “e” representing establishment.
In Tennessee... Time to start looking for Chuck Fleischmann's replacement. He's been around the Chattanooga/Corker cabal too long. His district extends from Chattanooga to up to Anderson County {Oak Ridge}. In the TN GOP Duncan and Blackburn as well as DesJarlais rightfully went against Boehner on the Budget vote. Fleischmann, Fincher, Black, and Roe did not.
That said I sure wish Duncan would step up and challenge Corker for his senate seat. Duncan is solid conservative one of the voices of reason and discipline. It's time for term limits as well. Past time really. Two lifetime terms for senate and four for the Reps.
