jwhop | Well, if I were O'Bomber and the rest of the Socialist comrades in Congress, I wouldn't let this partial shutdown go on too long. Americans might find out they can do very nicely with 800,000 fewer federal employees. We already found out the dreaded sequester which O'Bomber put forth but dems were screeching, howling and shrieking about didn't cause much of a ripple in America. Maybe we should do that again. |
AcousticGod | The longer it goes, the worse it is for Republicans. |
Randall | Disagree. The voters will decide that. |

Catalina | Maybe, if you're not military, national park service, science researcher; if you haven'thad weekly furloughs as a govt employee, or if you don't use medicare, food stamps, or headstart; or are oblivious to what people are going thru...you haven't noticed. That doesn't mean it has caused no hardship. Much of it was put off and only went into effect last month and some of it really didn't matter, but going by the myriad articles on the effects it's no secret. |
jwhop | This partial shutdown is on O'Bomber and Hairy Reid. They could have full funding and could have had full funding all along if they had agreed to waive the individual mandate for a year. And why shouldn't they do that. O'BomberCare isn't nearly ready for prime time. Besides which, it wasn't Republicans who furloughed those 800,000 federal employees. It was the Marxist Messiah, Barack Hussein O'Bomber....and no Republican asked or demanded he do so.

Catalina | The three months ahead, like the three years behind, were designed to give time to tune the thing up. But Congress has spent most of that time trying to repeal what they knew would not be repealed. So where's their budget jwhop? you know yourself Congress makes the budget. They failed to do so to make a point. And to try one more time to tank the ACA. Delaying it for a year would only mean that the money already spent would be thrown out. Exactly what the Heritage group want. |
jwhop | "The three months ahead, like the three years behind, were designed to give time to tune the thing up"...Catalina/katatonic O'BomberCare needs a "tune up"? Don't make me laugh. O'BomberCare is way beyond a "tune up". It needs a complete overhaul..or better yet send it to the scrap heap of history. "So where's their budget jwhop? you know yourself Congress makes the budget."...Catalina/katatonic Republicans in the House have passed a budget every single year..right on time and sent those budgets to the US Senate. It's the US Senate lead by the ass clown Hairy Reid which has/had not passed a budget for more than 3 years. This is a violation of the law since there is a requirement to pass a budget by April 15th EVERY YEAR |
AcousticGod | The House just passed a bill to retroactively pay furloughed people for the period of the shutdown, which suggests: 1. They don't care how long the shut down lasts, and 2. Workers can't be paid for working at present, which means Jwhop's lame assertion about Obama putting these people out of work is wrong. Obama can not ask them to work without pay. |

Catalina | Once again, jwhop, you are talking about something you admit to knowing very little about except from paid discreditors. And the Republicans follow docilely along behind the Heriterage folk making a lot of diversionary noise to distract from how totally divided they are. |
