115th Congress: On Permanent Vacation

[BassAle]

She is banking that her constituents are too stupid to realize she played them.

Most of them are too stupid to realize

Re: 115th Congress: On Permanent Vacation

She didnt get played...she knew what would happen. The House would never support stabilizing ObamaCare it would die in Conference Committee if the Senate tried.

She is banking that her constituents are too stupid to realize she played them.

So, not only did she lie about the economists but she also lied about that? That's a lot of lying. How do these people sleep at night?

So, they're all sociopaths?

There is something wrong with someone who runs for office. That something becomes larger commensurate with the office she runs for.

It may not be sociopathology -- it may be a savior complex like Obama or narcissism like Dump or EARNDADDYSRESPECT like C+ Augustus. But something's broken in there and the fly wheel is spinning out of control. Somethin' aint right.

How to get elected in Dumbf-ckistan.

Ol' Roy knows that if there's an afterlife, Satan himself will be personally welcoming him at the Fiery Gates. He's just projecting.

Re: 115th Congress: On Permanent Vacation

This is classic. The moron Collins was on Meet the Press this weekend. I watched. I also posted about it. A lot. Anyway her argument was that she believed the tax cuts would pay for themselves. When Chuck Todd pointed out that no study has been published that says that she said talk to a couple of economists and rattled off their names.

Look what I find today.

Who elected this clown?

MAJOR UPDATE. IT GETS BETTER:

That is classic. She got played.

I doubt it. She knew she would get nothing, but needed something she could go back to her constituents with and say, "See, I tried, but our leadership lied to us."

Yes. Part of playing the game is playing your constituents.

Re: 115th Congress: On Permanent Vacation

I'm now fairly convinced we'll witness the end of the US as a world superpower in my lifetime. It won't happen overnight, but this year has been the start of it. We're going to be somewhere around 1960/70s UK level by the time I hit 50, except instead of letting our empire go independent, we'll be outright ceding overseas territories and bases to Jhina to pay our debts, as our working poor class grows larger with every passing year. Time to pick up that Assimil Mandarin course.

Should be a great era for rock n' roll again, though.

Good luck Beijing, you're gonna need it.

Sure it will. Most of them are morons.

I had two high school teachers who knew Mandarin, because "It's going to be the language of business and economy soon." This was 17 to 20 years ago.

Are you kidding? Why do you think these clowns keep getting elected? No one wants to believe they are dumb enough to fall for it but they are. There are people I know, lefties, who think Erik Paulsen is a pragmatic number cruncher who votes based on his thoughts not his party.

The people of Maine will see a bunch of ads about how she saved ObamaCare and how she was cutting taxes to protect them and was screwed by Paul Ryan (you know one of the evil ones unlike her the hero!!!) about SALT and fixing the issues with ending the individual mandate. They wont do a simple google search and will keep her around. The populace is stupid and that is why nothing ever changes.
