Debt Ceiling Bill Passes: What Do You Think?

  Just as soon as I can get a copy of this bill, I am going to look through it to find the part where our congress-critters have to take a pay cut in order to help balance the budget.

  The bill passed  269-161 in favor of screwing the country. 95 Democrats did the right thing by voting no. The press was reporting that very few congress-critters like this bill but they voted “ yes “ anyway, in both parties. Bad move children. They should have voted no and then they should have let our fearful leader ( Obama ) do the constitutional 14th Amendment ploy.

  Hats of to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, D-Ariz who came to the House in order to cast her vote.

  It is worth the look at this woman’s voting record and the fact that the other Reps. in her state also thought that her bills weren’t worth the time of day.
