Funding continuing resolution

[BAstoicguy]

What would be the problem with a government shutdown?

There is not problem with it but it does become a useful lever for then you do not have to explain profligate spending, you are given the opportunity to paint a picture dire with words as to why you must fear responsibility; the Peter Pan argument.

You never have to grow up and your allowance will always go up.

The magic of baseline budgeting, where every decreased increase is actually

Draconian Cut, The Bane of Democracy!​

Three pages, exactly as described and then the standard tactic, if you are not trembling in fear, then there is something wrong with you, Here's what I think it is....

And then the congregation becomes chorus.

LOL. 38 Republicans heading to be primaried and a Government shutdown. This is good. The less government the better. Might get rid of a lot of deadweight here.

If that's what the dems want.

The Dems think that their willing allies in the press are going to run interference for them and the repubs are going to get all the blame. They obviously haven't picked up on the paradigm shift. Trump, Vance, Musk, and Ramaswamy have the Bully Pulpit now and the dems are going to be heaped with shame. These are exactly the kind of moments where Trump shines and he's going to punch back........hard.

It appears a lot of government workers are going to get a long holiday break. Maybe after Jan. 20th shit will start getting done.

 

[BAstoicguy]

That resembles something I posted in the other thread just minutes ago. Wow. We are the same alt.


PS – They were already home. Now they don't have to pretend to work. Call wait times are horrible. It's hard to pick up the iPhone what with daycare, cooking and a constant stream of texts to answer.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

Yes you are. Alt away!!!


Murrland is crushed that they'll have to pay for the Key Bridge replacement. The fucking shipping company might oughta be on the hook for that. They hit it, the US taxpayer didn't.

 

[BAstoicguy]

Congress will find a way to squeal, we trained them and it takes a while to unteach a pig.

 

[Rebel5soul]

They and the press are throwing a temper tantrum. 2 yr olds throwing tantrums are fun to watch.................as long as you can change the channel or hit mute. When they're in a group and get really worked up I just mute the TV and play this song.

This year's election does not constitute any paradigm shift.

Pigs will eat bacon.


Just sayin' . . . .

 

[BAstoicguy]

The election certainly is not a shift, but a symbolic awakening, the shift is in those who usually, culturally, just go along to get along with the fad of the day. Unfortunately, their new masters began to impinge upon that precious third fundamental freedom: The Pursuit of Happiness (Property, physical and intellectual). It was being taken from us in our best interests and we decided to take it back.

We the Living

 

[BAstoicguy]

We needed a leader. I have never part particularly liked the guy, but I recognize his ability to organize and get shit done with the accords of reality and recognizing when to cut the fucking Gordian knot.

I hear Alexander was one right womanizing asshole too...

Tony says, He was GREAT!

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It was a course correction, not a paradigm shift.


The bootheel is theirs.

It is not going to stop Christmas.
People will not be paying attention.
When it is all over, life will be the same.

It was just the boy crying wolf again. Grownups laugh.

 

[Rebel5soul]

Over the years there have been upwards of 21 shutdowns of varying lengths and no one remembers them, thus signaling their overall importance in the scheme of things.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

It stopped Xmas here. No lights, no decorations.


Xmas will look a lot like Wednesday.


We will wish a Happy Birthday to The Baby Jesus, however.


Allah be praised!!!

 

[BAstoicguy]

Then no one will be offended? Right?

 

[Wat_Tyler]

We have it covered. All of us are offended.


In advance, no less.

 

[BAstoicguy]

Equality achieved!

Thank you dysfunctional Congress!

 

[Rebel5soul]

Equity achieved!

Thank you dysfunctional Congress!

FYP

 

[ll74]

Obviously we have solved the problem


Huzzah!

AceRebelWat’s 18 comment spasm is amusing.

MAGAs proving they are incompetent to govern has made him very agitated.

 

[BAstoicguy]

Thank you Throbbie.

"Oh yes, Chuckie..... yes yes yes, harder....give it to me harder...I'm almost there.....shut it ALL down....."

I don't think he's realized that's what we'd actually like to see. LOL. Silly Chuckie.

MAGAs had all year to pass spending bills at whatever level they wanted, but were too busy investigating the Jewish space laser hurricane control plans on Hunter’s laptop.

And true morons try to pretend it’s all going to plan.

The House of Clowns is too farcical to be a believable movie script.

You don't seem to realize how important Schumer will be to you going forward.
