We both know that's a crock. Republicans have a majority of gubernatorial positions. And they have gerrymandered the districts. Please stop I pay attention...
That's because Republicans didn't have their plan in place yet. They didn't really need to because they were busy passing shit by reconciliation with George Bush.
They didn't pass anything by any special reconciliation. When the house and senate each vote on similar bills, they have to have a reconciliation between those two bills. The same bill has to be passed by both the house and senate to advance to the president's desk. Unlike ObamaCare, which Reid illegally claimed both the house and senate voted on the same bill. There was no reconciliation. But the House and Senate govern themselves and republicans didn't have the votes to force things to be done right. The house and senate are supposed to pass 13 spending bills every year to fund the government. That stopped with Obama - he just spent whatever the fuck he wanted. Until republicans took over the house. Again, people saw democrats in control and were scared shitless. $9 TRILLION in debt! If the brakes weren't put on, it'd have been $90 TRILLION.

Take it. I'm so mad from tonight's loss that I'll probably punch my screen if this goes further. And it's not worth it to me right now. Have a good night.
There's so much wrong with this post. It's funny how people say Obama spends this and Obama spends that when it's the house who passes all of the spending bills that are sent to the president's desk. The house controls the purse strings. Why people blame any president for spending is just silly. The government spends. Not the president. Also, I could have swore they took that abortion language out of the final bill. I also find it funny that you will quote Huffington Post when you believe that it represents your point but rag on it when someone else uses it.
The House controls the purse strings, but the president has to sign the bills. When the House was Democrat and the senate was Democrat, Obama got $800B in "emergency" spending slush fund and upped the budget by another $800B EVERY YEAR. You do remember the government getting shut down when republicans wouldn't go along with the reckless spending?
Horrible news. https://www.washingtonpost.com/worl...cdb4b7f8dd7_story.html?utm_term=.b9c5942a90fd First sign of enhanced U.S.-Russia relations under Trump: An invite to Syria talks Russia has invited the incoming Trump administration to Syrian peace talks it is sponsoring later this month with Turkey and Iran, part of a process from which the Obama administration pointedly has been excluded. U.S. participation, especially if an agreement is reached, would be the first indication of the enhanced U.S.-Russia cooperation that President Vladimir Putin and President-elect Donald Trump have forecast under a Trump administration. The invitation, extended to Trump’s designated national security adviser, Michael T. Flynn, came in a Dec. 28 phone call to Flynn by Sergey Kislyak, Russia’s ambassador in Washington, according to a transition official. ... The Astana meeting will follow an unsuccessful year-long attempt, spearheaded by the Obama administration and Russia, to implement a cease-fire and begin peace talks in Syria. Moscow and Washington have accused each other of sabotaging that effort. Russia initiated the new process, aiming to demonstrate its own leadership role on the regional and global stages.
Fuck Comrade Donald. Now and forever. In 2001, a gossip columnist discussed Donald Trump’s Russian sexcapades on ‘Howard Stern’ In February of 2016, a “Howard Stern Show” clip from 2001 had resurfaced of then real estate mogul Donald Trump, who had called into the show andengaged in a dick-measuring contest with in-studio guest and gossip reporter A.J. Benza. The two were snapping at each other over a woman they both dated, a model named Kara Young. Benza and Trump went back and forth over who stole whose girlfriend, then this curious exchange went down: Trump: I assume A.J.’s clean. I hope he’s clean. Benza: Meanwhile, he bangs Russian people… Stern: Russian people? Trump: Who are you talking about, Russian people, A.J.? I don’t know anything. Benza: He used to call me when I was a columnist and say, “I was just in Russia, the girls have no morals, you gotta get out there.” [Trump’s] out of his mind. The exchange happens at the 4:20 mark.
Did I tell you about when my mom slapped me in the face as hard as she could when I was about five? I grew up in the country, no black people anywhere. I'd never seen one but I had watched All in The Family with my grandpa. Let's just say he used the n word while watching it. Mom takes me into Portland to Lloyd Center and I saw my first black person in real life and pointed and screamed "look mom, it's a N word" BITCH SLAP!!!!!!!! DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT WORD I'll never forget it. Never said it in public again, can't say my brain doesn't let it pop in from time to time. I can't help it. I know it's wrong.
You realize Howard Stern is a shock jock, comedian? The topics on the show are racy at best, downright crude. It's silly to take what was said on that show seriously. The guests try to be funny and play along.
That said, Trump did one of the most idiotic things this morning. He tweeted bullshit angry response to John Lewis. He'd be better off not taking on iconic civil rights leaders as he did. A better response would have been that he didn't have to show, that's his prerogative. His district is going to win along with everyone else.
Do you remember them voting themselves a raise and not doing anything...you were right in a previous post about them not passing anything...sorry Denny but the deficit started with a republican administration....the spending started with Cheney not Obama....it was necessary to refinance the country if you paid attention to what happened under Bush/Cheney.....your posts are distorted to make it look like americans were scared of Obama when I guess you were scared of Obama.....not me. FAIL......you better have a pail of water because the boat is still full of holes and Trump doesn't know how to use a bucket
Cool story... I don't think that she was trying to teach you not to be racist though. I think she was trying to protect you from an ass whoopin'! But hey, I could be wrong.
See? Excuses excuses. It's Bush's fault. Obama had all three branches. The debt is solely his, from the day he took office and had W's final budget tossed.
