On Guard for Thee Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Yeah, they've been in gridlock for quite a while already, and Obama's been hacking up the course like he's got a part time job. Anyway, sweet to see the guy get what he deserves. Not so sweet to see the American people get what they probably don't deserve. Or, maybe they do. Maybe they deserve T party morons with Sarah Pallin keeping her eye on Russia. Quote
Shady Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Posted November 5, 2014 Looks like the US may be headed down the road of complete and utter gridlock. Actually it's the complete opposite. Instead of the senate being the place where legislation goes to die. It will now be debated on, amended, and a senate version of house bills passed. The legislation will be reconciled and sent on to the president to be either signed into law, or vetoed. The way things are suppose to work. Instead of the perverted way the senate was being run the last few years. No votes on bills. No amendments. No nothing. Quote
sharkman Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) He's been wanting a majority in the Senate like a fat kid wants candy. Try to pay attention, what he got was a rejection of his performance/policies and he was so toxic he couldn't publicly campaign for anyone, only squeeze rich fat cat Dems in private. And it was all wasted money, even though the Dems outspent and got a cheerleading press. He's a lame duck walking. Edited November 5, 2014 by sharkman Quote
On Guard for Thee Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Actually it's the complete opposite, there will be no meaningful debate and bills that support either right wing religious fanatics or supportive corporations with their hands in the cookie jar will be rubber stamped. Thank God Obama has that veto. They can forward them to the golf club Obama uses. Is it the same one Bush used I wonder? Quote

I suspect that Obama is going to be a bitter clinger to his dream that he won, so everybody should pass his bills. Maybe he should phone up Bush and ask for adivce, since he did so much better when in the same situation. Quote

On Guard for Thee Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 I just listened to an interview with Ted Cruz. I'm so glad I'm not American. Pass the guns, to hell with the environment, open the bible, and Fuck healthcare. Have fun y'all. Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Actually, this is exactly what a president who has lost the feeling needs. The thrill is gone. Sen. Harry Reid now gets the smaller office. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

On Guard for Thee Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 That's because I am a crazy person. What is your excuse? Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 No worries...he's still happy to get work from Americans and go to American military bases, where they have guns and bibles. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Shady Posted November 5, 2014 Author Report Posted November 5, 2014 Anyways, back to the mid terms. Looks like there will still be a run off election in Louisiana, since no candidate got 50% of the vote. Quote
On Guard for Thee Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 Actually I stand slightly corrected. Washington state apparently passed some type of new gun law. I think it will require people to have some sort of ID when they buy an AR 15 at a gunshow from now on. Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 No big surprise with the midterms....the Republicans successfully linked many incumbent candidates with President Obama. The look on Rachel Maddow's face is priceless..... Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

Argus Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 It's not corruption because it is perfectly legal. Quite untrue. That bribery is legal does not make it any less a corrupting influence. Gerrymandering is also a corruption of the process, legal or not.

Keepitsimple Posted November 5, 2014 Report Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) Looks like the US may be headed down the road of complete and utter gridlock. I guess Obama may have to do what Bushy boy always did and polish up his golf clubs. Making up stuff again are you? As of 2013, Obama had golfed over 150 rounds in his 5 years as President. As for "Bushy boy" as you called him...... However, Mr. Bush stopped playing golf in Aug. 2003 out of respect for the families of servicemen in Iraq and Afghanistan. Mr. Obama has shown no such feeling of inappropriateness.Even if you compare number of rounds up to that point in the first term, Mr. Obama had played three times the number of times as Mr. Bush — 76 to 29 rounds.
