House offered to fund it and Reid denied it. He's more concerned with 1,000 people at Dulles AFB. Let's listen: http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Journa...id-why-would-we-want-to-save-kids-from-cancer
Who got fired, Shiva? Please be specific, not disingenuous. Job loss? Get serious. This isn't like ObamaCare where people are actually losing their jobs. .
BASH: "But if you can help one child with cancer, why wouldn't you do it?" REID: "Why would we want to do that? I have 1100 people at Nellis Air Force Base sitting home. They have problems of their own." I think liberals should be forced to tour their own minds and see what the rest of us have to see.
Yes conservative morals & scruples ... let's play tea party jihadist negotiation and determine which ones can die or pay bills to reopen govt ...
While I expect you to ignore what's being said and just make your usual anti-Republican/anti-Zimmerman (depending on the thread), straw man arguments.... I would think you would at least be supportive of the poorest parts of our society, who need the most government support. Or does the sensitivity leave when you realize they vote Republican ? (rhetorical...since we obviously know you).
I was just watching Ann Romney on a favorite food-dishes show trying to be disgusted .. then we turned to podunk teat-suckers furloughed who now have to stretch 1 week of food into 3 ... Maybe they can eat some conservatives.
Agree, and they are asking for exemption from Obamacare, they want to keep what they have. They will get the exemption I'm sure in about a year, just like they won't lose a dime in this shut down. They get paid twice a month, they already had a payday at the end of September, which was this past Monday morning, before the shutdown. Later,. they will be paid in full for these days they had to suffer..
No doubt in my mind you spend your entire life obsessing over Conservatives, looking for things to be disgusted about.
Nobody has lost their job sparky, calm down. They are furloughed, which means when someone in the house or the senate blinks, they'll be back to work and get back pay (even though they shouldn't because they haven't been "working"). And let's be clear, not all government workers are furloughed, only those that work for offices under appropriated funds, revolving fund (i.e. self-sustained) offices are still fully up and running. You should be dancing in the aisles the big evil military machine is getting cut like that, I mean, all we've heard from the leftards is about cutting defense....
The shutdown is good only in that we all know why and who caused it, which means it won't look for obama and the dumbocrats for doing it (which is the good thing). Of course it was obama and reid who did it. Bring on the leftard screeching points....
Lmao! So if Senate provided a bill that would only approve funding if the Republicans banned guns... it would be the Republicans fault for the shutdown if they didn't sign it? That's the kind of logic conservatives have. Hahahaha, they have actually convinced themselves this is Obama's fault for not negotiating a law that has already been approved by Congress and the Supreme Court.
I remember when we got suckered in 2010 on a conservative Jobs, Jobs, Jobs election platform ... instead we got govt. shutdowns and legita-rape ... http://www.whenarethejobs.com/
Of which obama felt he could just alter 19 times on his own illegally, but that's perfectly ok with you leftards...got it. We don't even need to talk about "pass it to find out what's in it". When you get a grasp of intellectual honesty and logic, then give it a shot again.
Lol! What a joke. Obamacare was approved, survived over 40 attempts to repeal it, and a Constitutional approval by the Supreme Court. So the Repubs left with no other options decide to hold the country hostage over something that is already funded and approved and official law. Can't write better comedy than this. Great job supporting these fascists.
He wants a "clean" CR, which implies that any mention of Obamacare is dirty. Maybe he should be thinking that a for real budget is what's best instead of this pathetic CR business, but I doubt he can hold his balance without the training wheels. I know. You and your neo-nazi pals are scrounging up as many right-wing posters to hate on as you can, giving us all a preview of your intentions, what kind of treatments we should expect when we all get our Obamacare. Squirrels and their nuts. Hahaha. It's gonna be a long winter.
Of the 2.1 million federal employees this is .6% of the total population. That is just over half of one percent of the total population of the U.S. Thirty percent of that number classified as NON essential are whining so loud that it is all we hear and see on the media. Never mind that 47 million Americans are out of work. That is 12% of the population. How about spending more time whining for the 12% of the population than half of one percent of the population!
Every federal and state worker will be get back pay when the "shutdown" is over. After every government shutdown, congress instantly rams through a bill authorizing all of them back pay, including any overtime pay they were due. If effect, all these "laid off" government workers are on a paid vacation.
You'll never hear a liberal talk about that. And in the new Obamacare world, the term "Double Twenty" will replace full time work.
Are you serious? Those 47m workers out of work is all that has been talked about since 2008. You know, the lazy no good for nothing welfare slobs to lazy to work and won't pay taxes.
This is why the government is a failure. There's not a business on Earth that would/could survive having 31% of their employees be non-essential. And the idiot liberal pleebs still cheer them on, entrusting them with control over every aspect of their miserable lives.
Hark! When the pixies cast their spells into the dreams of the Nubian princess, the sprites and larks will light the way to the land of sea gypsies. All then will be revealed.
