      They can override his veto. If Dems are at 240 in the House that would only take about 50 knucks to cross over and put this to bed. I think 7 of them already voted for the Dems first bill to open the government. Senate would need 20 Goopers which is doable if the Koch brothers write Itch a big enough check to bring the bill up for a vote.

        Sure. They can override it. IF and ONLY IF Turtle Boy will bring it to the floor. Right now he won't. And again, this is a discussion about who has power. Turtle Boy has all the power in the Senate. Nancy has all the power in the House. And, it's massive power. I think people forgot how powerful the Speaker is while Ayn Rand Masturbation Boy was running things.

          All of the GOP speakers have been impotent post-Gingrich. From Child Molester Hastert to the Boner to the Weasel, its been a bunch of people kowtowing down to the likes of Tom DeLay and Jim Jordan.

            Yeah, it's setup so the leader of the Freedom Caucus swings the biggest dick and the Speaker is nobody.

                So, you're OK with Turtle Boy collecting a paycheck while others who have zero to do with it don't?

                I will agree that not everyone in Congress has as much power as Schumer, Pelosi, McConnell, etc..., but they are still a part of the process. TSA isn't. ATC isn't.

                    Yeah, I am. Turtle Boy is stinking rich anyway so it really doesn't matter and it won't hurt him.
