'Well, that's news to me.'
So he didn't even read the bill?
Of course not. Just like Obama Care. They always pushed it at last minutes.
The fact they vote on things they don't read is irresponsible and treasonous.
It's definitely irresponsible, but treasonous? No.
I don't think there's a word that's ever been as overused and misused here as the word "treason" has been.
I'm not intending to single you out or embarrasse you, so please don't take it personally.
People are getting waaaaaay too loosey goosey with word definitions. The gravitas behind the word "treason" is getting diluted more and more every day.
I think people really need to go look up the definition of that word and find some clear examples of it to have as a reference. Because now it seems that people believe that "treason" means anything associated with politics that they believe is wrong or don't agree with.
I don't know why, but it's like someone just flipped a switch one day, and all of a sudden people were calling anything that pissed them off as "treason".
I know I'm an old fuddy duddy, but I think it's important to keep the definition and perception of the word "treason" to high standards. When any word is overused and misused constantly, it changes the public's perception of that word. They become sort of numb to it. In this case, it doesn't hold the same amount of respect it's owed when people use it in such a trivial manner. And "treason" is definitely a word that should be given the respect it's due because of how horrible a crime it actually is.
I'll get off my soapbox now.
I call it as I see it. I meant every word I said and understand why I said it. America has foreign and Domestic enemies. Domestic enemies are treasonous. And have infiltrated our government. That's why we have Gitmo. Children are irresponsible. Adults are responsible for their actions. To continually propose actions that wreck the fabric of America is treasonous in my book and a demonstration of hatred of Americans. Treason is spiritual as well as physical. As it is my grandkids have less than I have. Because people want to find ways to accommodate evil instead of confronting and dealing with it. American people shed blood for this land. To see it stolen from us because "we just want to get along" is an abomination to all righteousness. Sometimes you have to play hardball.. The Founding Fathers expressed this same sentiment in their writings. That's how it is. Evil nibbles away until you are enslaved to it. This is about American legacy. pissed off is about someone cutting you off in traffic or other personal issues. Been in this battle for a long time. As have others.
BTW I am older than you..more fuddy duddy.
The 1,500 pages were not written by Congress critters.
It was written by K Street lobbyists and congressional staffers.
👆👆👆👆
This is an important comment. The staffers do the bidding of the lobbyists. Us peasants are occasionally just an afterthought unless it's election season.
Saying that he's lying is the same as saying he's breathing.
This, you could see it in his face he was lying, the deflection also adds to his deception.
he lies, so there's that.
Durbin is one of the biggest dicks alive
They have a LOT of dicks... they collect them... like Danang dick
D.C. is a perpetual China doll of dicks
Cheney is also in the biggest Dick category. If we're being accurate...
Get him out of there people.
LOL
but, hey, there's ice cream and vodka! Get on board!!
Of course Durbin pretended to be a brain-dead. Howls.
If he is that dumb, then he cannot work there rep us?
Oh, you mean he belongs in Hollywood as an actor. I got you.
LOL
Then quit Durbin...greedy mofo. Shut it down.
They are evil and greedy for sure.
I'd bet EVERY PENNY to my name he's a lying sack of shit. They knew. HE definitely knew. And as much as I despise MSM, that reporter is right. My tax dollar doesn't pay him. It sure as shit pays those useless, lazy, corrupt POS in Congress. Want COLA? Get what you give seniors living at poverty level on SS.
Of course, liar.
The snake eating it's own tail! Keke
Yes.
I’m enjoying watching their demise. Literally…
They are going but we want some honest good people in there too or they will creep back.
BRAIN_DEAD...this be ONE HELL-OF-A-KEEPER.....WOWZA!!!!!!!
Outstanding Young Man...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
LOL
The difference is, we pay the government, we do pay pay the reporters.
Let's not pay them.
Wow the lack of self awareness 🤯
Why are we watching these people?
Yeah!!! Some in MSM are having to take a pay cut based on low ratings. Congress should follow their lead!!!!
Fire them. Not even giving them a pay cut to keep their jobs.
Rachel Maddow makes $25m per year for 1 night a week and 103,000 viewers per show. Her ratings are down 56% while still making the same money (albeit the $5m sacrifice she made. This is not how it works in the real world when you start making over $200k-ish/year

Overpaid liar.
According to the Congressional Research Service (CRS), the spending bill would grant members of Congress only a 3.8% increase, raising their salary from $174,000 to $180,600, an increase of $6,600.
I thought the Omnibus Bill gave them a 40% raise?
