Your Congress In Action
 
A nice video examining the recent budget bill and explaining why it's all the Republicrats'/Demicans' fault. Congress knows no parties except the ones they throw for themselves.

Sorry I'm not going to subscribe to watch it Steve.

EDIT: My mistake it just starts at the end for some reason.

I don't know why it's doing that. I've relinked it twice and it still does it.

Here's the original link. You can read the transcript here.

I laughed at the the thread title.... then realized it wasn't a joke.

Glad to see they are going to loosen the controls on what banks can do! It sure worked out so well last time everything went to heck in a hand basket! Just what the country needs, another financial crisis!:nope: Screw those clowns in D.C. But, what can we do, we are just along for the ride anyway, and we pay in more ways then one, to fix things again. Send them all to Iraq, and let IS have them!:haha:

'Congress in action'? Should there really be a second space?

Wolferz 12-13-14 05:54 AM

Only one way to fix these assclowns...

Seal up their chambers and suck out all the air.:yeah:

Sure it's filled with tons of pork projects as well. Our govt. has no shame on anything, like spoiled kids that stick their tongues out at naive parents....

Wolferz 12-13-14 09:55 AM

If the government shut down, would anyone really notice?

A certain party and it's members have had it shut down for a number of years now.:-?

Well, there's the rub. We can joke about inaction, but that might be a good thing. When they do take action, as here, everyone suffers. Well, everyone but them.

Pretty sure this is the way it's been done for a very long time. The only thing that spoiled the video for me was the snarky quips which gave it all the sincerity of a commercial hawking some wonder device, and using actors being ridiculously clumsy without one.

eddie 12-13-14 05:22 PM

When you read about something like this, makes me wonder why I vote anymore. Seems like a big waste of my time, nothing changes, just more crap on a new day!:nope:
