Teabagger "leader" wants government shutdown...

Figures.

Judson Philips: Shut Down The Government Over Immigration Or Foreign Ebola Patients

Submitted by Miranda Blue on Wednesday, 11/12/2014 11:37 am

In an interview with Newsmax yesterday, Tea Party Nation founder Judson Philips urged soon-to-be Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell to keep the threat of a government shutdown “on the table.” Claiming that last year’s government shutdown helped Republicans, Phillips said that Republicans in Congress should be ready to shut down the government if President Obama takes executive action to prevent the deportation of some undocumented immigrants living in the U.S., or if he brings “non-American Ebola patients to this country.” The conservative media has latched onto an undated State Department memo discussing options for treating non-U.S. citizen medical personnel who contract Ebola, but the administration has firmly denied having plans to bring noncitizen Ebola patients into the United States for treatment.

the American public conveniently forgot about all of the other times and voted those same people back into office.

Of course, I do acknowledge the rigging of our elections, too.

to shut the government down. They just want to shut it down. The reason changes with the wind. Baggers only want to wave their collective penises in Obama's face.

When you get your state to stop accepting more federal money than they pay out then maybe we will talk.
