Sounds like the same time frame as they promised for a replacement for ObamaCare.

And we’ll have it ready right after you squirrel-brained media types have ceased to ask us about it.

“Protect this institution, so democracy can work, so that the Republic can function and so that the House of Representatives can get its job done…”

Translation from the original weaselspeak: We’ll browbeat the Democrat Party until we get what we want, and serve our corporate masters." What a slimy POS Ryan is! Thanks, voters of Wisconsin, for this rattlesnake and his little Koch toady, Scott Walker. Heckuva job!

What a BABY! Let’s all have sanctions because poor little Paul has no idea what he is doing.

Playing more games is better than doing his job - which Paul seems very very incapable of doing.

So are they going to cut their pay checks? Lower their meal allowance to a $1.60 a day? No office supplies? Round the Dems up and banish them to the further offices? Rescind their use of the tram, gym and pool?

Comity=courtesy and considerate behavior toward others. So Paulie what were you planning on doing the last day before your seven week vacay, get another Obamacare repeal?

No doubt the Democratic caucus is shaking in their boots.

Seriously, what exactly can they do that would have any kind of meaningful impact but wouldn’t require a two-thirds majority?

Nothing better for cooperative democracy than punishing your political opponents. I’m sure they won’t turn around and do it to you later.

I wish someone would return the very same letter back to them after having wiped their ass with it with the words “Our thoughts: …” written on it

“Our goal here and our job is to protect this institution,” Ryan said. “Protect this institution, so democracy can work, so that the Republic can function and so that the House of Representatives can get its job done, and also so that we have comity here – so that Republicans and Democrats can actually talk with one another and be reasonable with one another.”

Everything’s the opposite.

So, there are three weeks until the end of the fiscal year, at which point Congress takes off for the vitally important task of campaigning to keep their undeserved jobs. So the agenda?

  • Zika virus – no can do, gotta get rid of Planned Parenthood

  • Help save Obamacare – no way

  • The budget for the rest of the government – gotta mollify the Tea Baggers, who don’t want any government but the part that cuts their paychecks

  • Punish the Dems who demanded a vote on gun safety? – Bingo

And there you have it.
