Saying what dumb people think is smart!

That's all I'm hearing from the GOP.


Now the party line today according to my B'N law the TP'er is it was never about defunding the ACA but the deficit. Like we don't remember what was just said yesterday anymore?

http://www.courier-journal.com/viewa...nment-shutdown

"House Republicans appeared to be shifting their demands, de-emphasizing their previous insistence on defunding the health care overhaul in exchange for re-opening the government. Instead, they ramped up calls for cuts in federal benefit programs and future deficits, items that Boehner has said repeatedly will be part of any talks on debt limit legislation."

They've bought into the face-saving maneuvering from the GOP. Namely, they lost the Obamacare/shutdown fight, so now they're morphing the shutdown fight into the debt limit fight and rebranding it as a fight about the debt/deficit. If Obama agrees to any economic policy changes (even ones he supports and wants to do) while leaving Obamacare intact, the GOP will be able to tell their gullible masses that they won.

“This isn’t some damn game,” said House Speaker John Boehner, as the White House and Democrats held to their position of agreeing to negotiate only after the government is reopened and the $16.7 trillion debt limit raised.

You know, this quote is just priceless considering this asshole will not allow a clean up or down vote.

If the Dems have any back bone, this is the time to show it. Keep demanding an up or down vote in the house. This will out the closet moderate republicans nor give the TP any talking points. We are a democracy, yet Boehner is acting like an Ayatollah.

Actually, I'd say it is possible to hate ones own people. In fact, I've seen it.

But, I don't believe this is you. I think you're just telling it like it is.

There was this little white boy. He was looking around the hood, and noticed that the little black boys didn't have to study, and spent all of their time on the street corner dancing and jiving and having fun.

Now he thought this was pretty cool, and decided that he wanted to be black as well. So he went down into the basement, found a bucket of black paint, and painted himself black. He was quite pleased with himself.

So he went into the kitchen and told his mother, "Look at me mom, I'm black." And his mother told him, "You go outside and show your father what you've done!"

So he goes outside and tells his father, "Look at me dad, I'm black." And his father replies, "You get upstairs and wash that shit off before I kick your ass!"

So as the little boy was going upstairs he thinks to himself, "You know what, I ain't been black five minutes and I already hate them fuckin' crackers!"

Just a little humor to cheer you up, as I fear you are becoming suicidal.

I can't imagine on what basis he thinks the folks in question are 'his own people.'

I think people sort of identify with others that are the same color as themselves...don't you?
