$174,000 for 113 Days Work. Good Gig If You Can Get It.

[Claudette]

Do nothing means Barry's bs can't go anywhere.

Good deal for the Reps.

Bad deal for the Dems.

As for Congress and workday?? What do you expect from anyone being payed with tax dollars? Hope your not expecting a forty hour work week because that will never happen.

These Clowns have one cushy job. All funded by we the taxpayer. Perks they have voted in for themselves.

Nice to vote yourself one good living at everyone elses expence. Don't expect it to change though. It ain't gonna.

I can't understand how conservatives celebrate a Congress that does nothing

They can't pass a budget so we get stuck with sequestration
Unemployment is at 7% and Congress will not do anything
We have 12 million illegals and Congress does nothing

How do conservatives celebrate gridlock?

Look everyone....look what WE did

LMAO.

Sequestration was a big flop. A whole lot of nothing.

The budget. Hell. We haven't had one since Barry came into office. Whats the rush to get one through now??

Unemplyment? That and the economy are something Barry gave shit one about until after the Dems took two years to threaten, bribe and cajole the ACA into being. In fact I doubt he gives shit one about either now.

As for the illegals? If you think either party gives a good god damned about them then you are nuts. They are all trying to get the Hispanic vote so nothing will be done about those illegals or immigration. If they'd wanted something done a fence would have been built long ago.

As Will Rogers said. "Be thankful we aren't getting all the govt we are paying for."

 

[Claudette]

As long as they are not passing Obama's and Reid's Anti-American agenda, I don't care if all they do is play checkers and solitaire.

Why is it that some people, usually Democrats, think that Congress has to be passing new laws all the time? I read that more than 40K new laws went into effect on Jan 1st... Why on earth did we need all those new laws?

I'd like to see them be required to have Sunset dates of no more than 5 years on every law passed.

Yup and I think they need term limits in congress.

The Boehner's "do nothing" Congress isn't planning on any flurry of activities soon.

Congress Working Less Than 1/3 Of Year In 2014, Getting Full Salary

Just when you thought they couldn't get any do nothinger...

What work? Under Boehner the H. of Rep. might adopt this motto: Do harm.

I wanted San Diego to badly beat Cincinnati simply because the people in that area elected Boehner to the H. of Rep. What a pitiful and incompetent speaker he is, as well as a callous self absorbed jerk.

What harm has Boehner done, other than by caving into Democrat demands, that is?

Democrats have done all the damage in the last 5 years. Everything they have passed has been an utter disaster.

How much of the year is congress usually in session?

A whopping 126 days.

Actual time spent working is much less.

The other 2/3 of the year, they're campaigning so they can give themselves another raise.

every democratic bill stopped by the republicans is a win for america. this is the most successful house ever

 

[boilermaker55]

Yes you can, if you think about it long enough.
This is the group of people that type on a keyboard all their hard work and how they are self made.
This is (congress) is how they model themselves.
Its all in their mind.

Not really

They didn't accomplish anything on their own agenda. Taxes went up. Obamacare is still the law of the land. Gay rights are advancing, DOMA was repealed. Shutdown blew up in their face

What did they gain? Nothing

thats right, because they only had the votes to stop future damage. not reverse the 5 previous years of damage caused by the obama administration. imagint the hole we'd be in if liberal jokers had a full 8 years to run wild

Republicans brag about being the party of no

In the mean time they are accomplishing none of their agenda. They would have more to show if they actually compromised and received something in return for their support

They would have gotten a better healthcare bill, a budget that supports their programs, more tax concessions

But conservatives hate win-win solutions

Anything that allows the other guy to win also cannot be tolerated. Better everyone loses than both sides win

A "Democrat Compromise" is where Democrats get most, but not all, of what they asked for and give nothing in return. Then they attack you for having given them nothing. Pass.

wrongwinger believes the only cooperation should be with a move to the left to help the DEM agenda... as we see with actual budget cuts, tax reform, etc, anything to the conservative side is horrid...

As for what was gained... exposing the bullshit of the left wing agendas.. and many more people are opening their eyes.. well, not the ones collecting government handouts and shit who are Obamabots just like wrongwinger.. but many people indeed are

You obviously don't understand compromise
Neither do Republicans

When asked in a debate whether they would accept $10 in spending cuts for $1 in new taxes.....not a single Republican raised his hand

That's because the new taxes get implemented immediately. The spending cuts are always off in the future, and they never come to pass.

Republicans have finally learned not to kick the football when Lucy offers to hold it for them.

Only suckers make deals that depend on Democrat promises.

Except those were not actual cuts.. but 'future' reductions in increases... and not ones that future congresses are bound to uphold.. it is fucking smoke and mirrors... and funny how those cuts are always in the future, and never the current budget...

And funny how those tax increases are only on those 'evil rich' again... while a growing number pay nothing in income tax and become bought votes...

Make cuts to a balanced budget NOW, THIS YEAR THAT CONGRESS IS BOUND TO, then you can talk tax increases.. how do them apples sound??

If we are serious about debt reduction we need to both increase taxes and decrease spending

Everyone has to make a sacrifice

You're right. He's tried to negotiate with Obama over and over. What a dunce.

Are you sure Boehner negotiated? Do you have any proof beyond his tears? Do you ever have anything of substance to offer? You're much the same as The Rudy; a noun, a verb and a personal attack.

Yep.. increase those taxes and get all those not paying to start paying.. eliminate deductions, exemptions etc to stop the loopholes and stop leaving out certain income... all for it...

yet again, your cuts always seem to come in the future when no future congress is bound by those decisions.. I wonder why that is... possibly because they really don't want to lose the power they gain by their governmental spending

Funny how it is others you always want to sacrifice.. not having individuals sacrifice and do more for themselves and work 2 or 3 jobs to support themselves and their families.. funny how you want the sacrifice from those who earn more than you... funny how the sacrifice is not really of yourself and your own doing

Fuck you wrongwinger
