The Repubs gained office on the claim "We can get stuff done!" if the government shuts down thats irrefutable proof that they can't... Remember "The Super Committee" that was going to fix the sequester? The one where everybody was going to "Work Together"? Two days later it was "We'll all work together as long as you do what I want." Can't place blame on one party for that one, both were doing it. Remember I hate both parties equally, they're all turds, its just the kind of turd you get. -Curt

One side rolls over and plays dead, the other side will never compromise. That is why there is no compromise. Obumster got more than asked for in the new budget. Who didn't compromise? >-Curt > _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
