Uh-oh. The Denver Post editorial board better start practicing their shocked “No one could have possibly predicted” expression.

He said that means “using every procedural tool available, including reconciliation” to pass repeal of Obamacare with 51 Senate votes

51 votes to repeal and then…after that? Order the president to sign it?

This reminds me of the older kid who has to hang out with younger, more impressionable ones because he’s a social outcast among his peers.

The idea of Teabaggers actually working on a jobs bill–or anything that is not Benghazi, for that matter–is like a monkey discovering plutonium…by accident.

“Agenda that focuses on jobs” probably means what it always does: lowering taxes on the rich, loosening regulations, gutting the EPA, you know, the usual.

Ted Cruz opened his mouth and a whole bunch of dumb shit fell out. Bear poops in woods. Rednecks, Walmart and meth…3 things that appear to be inextricably linked. Stories at 11.

If the GOP had it’s way on wages, that $2,000 a business would save on taxes could hire 3 or 4 people for a year.

At least in their eyes.

Oh yeah, there’s a guy you want to hitch your wagon to, freshmen.

He has your best interest at heart.

EDIT:
Sorry, @turdburgler, Didn’t see your post but not surprised we had the same reaction.

Oh, and those promises you made to protect Social Security? - Mike Easter!

Psst, Republican freshmen, if you want to go right over that cliff with Cruz, go right ahead and do it. If you want to really make a difference in people’s lives, tell him to stuff it where the sun don’t shine cause he sure don’t care about anyone’s ass but his own.

This guy amazes me, he must wake up every morning and decided how important he is to himself.
Then goes to work believing he’s the boss when in actual reality he is just a mouth piece for what he thinks is the gang of the righteous to protect all from,
list anything and everything.
