So, let me get this straight. The Republicans wouldn't debate it, many have said they do not support current spending. It goes against what they tell voters they stand for. Kerry wouldn't vote for it.
So, the administration wants -- the administration gets. In the end, who voted for the damned thing??? Apparently, 52 people did something they were embarrassed to do. Flippin stupid, all this crap. We should go drag 'em out on the lawn and take paddles to them for being bad boys and girls.
Any government should go bankrupt rather than run a deficit. Wish we had Clinton around to shut down the government. Send all of D.C. home and you'll see the congressmen actually start to do something!! Quit spending any money on the troops, then they'll get their act in line!! We'll see several billions in airline bailout money get put to better use all of a sudden!! Planned multimillion dollar pork barrel bike paths in Austin will suddenly get dumped!!
