1. Just when I was breathing a sigh of relief that it was going to the "adults"
in the Senate. He's just as smarmy and despicable as those youngsters in the House.

6. Tar and feathers anyone? Since this GD Republican Congress
belligerantly and childishly insists on pushing our country into the dark ages...let's all act like braindead scumbags and resort to dark age responses to moronic actions by supposed adult officials.

McConnells hatred and racist wretchedness knows no bounds.
Tar and feathers sounds too good for him at the moment...but hell, why should we attempt anything that would be civil???

11. I'd like to see them there 24 hours a day without air conditioning
or electricity or phones or television....hey, we're reducing costs to reduce the deficit.
I want the GOP on the record as derailing a debt solution.
So let them filibuster

17. He will only talk to Obama. Does he think he can roll him???
Or is he just being a jealous, arrogant prick, because Obama negotiated with Boehner, he wants the same treatment.
