August Head-On Collision

[Winter_123]

We have the House going back home somewhat happy about making some progress on a bill, and as this poll shows, the folks are less than happy. Trying to fit those two together is not a trick that the viewing audience should try at home.


I am sure the Senate is more than happy to let the house be the canary in the mine.

Mr. Communicator is drinking beer at the white house today trying to get his foot out of his mouth. Nice, right at the most crucial juncture in the debate. Man, he frigged up there.

I see the real fallout happening when "Joe six pack" realizes that unless he purchases health insurance he's looking at a tax hike.

When does the other shoe drop? If there's no subsidy past 300% of FPL a family of 4 earning $70,000 (gross) could very well be looking at $700 to $1,400 premiums.

But everyone thought there was an agreement yesterday? Not so fast:

We need to throw the whole bunch in Washington out because the majority do not care about the majority of their consituents.

Someone is throwing a party?

No, just throwing BOTH parties OUT!

No, just throwing BOTH parties OUT!

So we're finally outing the dem and reps?

I think I'll take a look at the libertarians. Wish someone had mentioned them in the past.

Let's face it, there are turds on, as they like to say, both sides of the aisle.

The "lifers" like Mitch McConnell (R) and Christopher Dodd (D), have gotten us to where we are today.

All of the touted "change" is just more cosmetic "rearrangement", while it's just higher taxes and more loss of liberty from BOTH parties.

It's well past time to do something about it.

 

[Mr. Bill]

Aw, you call this a problem?
