Come on now, they're blocking the EPA from applying the law to certain ponds and ditches. That's gotta count for something... right?

Rise of tea party.

At first I was reading, thinking "that doesn't sound too bad". Then it dawned on me... They are talking billions, with a B. Then I was like "wtf? Over".

Can someone explain to me why we need more money to do nothing? And why do we need $6 billion to fight ebola? It been around for decades; but 6 Americans get it in 1 year after "importing" the disease and now its a $6B emergency?

Well it stinks. However the new guys are not in town yet and this boohoo Boehner is still able to cry and say he had no choice. I'll wait and see how the new blood shakes things up.

Agreed. That'll come in handy for all of us who'll surely be digging ditches to pay for our healthcare coverage.

Boohoo Boehner has got to go.
I am sick of all these RINOs.
Can't wait to see what the new guys do.

Yes they won but won't take the field until January. This bill had to get past Harry Reid.
