Damn fools Republicans to believe the RATS and they will find the bill not changed one but. How dumb. Fools. No wonder we lost everything.
To: ianschwartz
You know if I’m going to be called anti-American because I don’t support your legislation I think I would decide never to allow the bill as a matter of principle.
But hey that would require the repubs to be vertebrates.

No, they aren’t idiots.
They KNOW what they do.
They are TRAITORS. Plain and simple.
We need to stop fooling ourselves.

Of course...then they will need to “adjust” it when the House comes back and they’ll only need the 51 votes.
Lovely...just lovely...

Practical politics. Wall Street got Obama the nomination and the presidency. I’m only gonna spend so much political capital to save them from their own idiocy. We’ll just have to fix this the next Republican administration.
