Unfortunately the likes of Ted Cruz and his cohorts as well as the spineless Speaker of the House John Boehner relish actions like this. They care nothing for what the American people want. They do not mind hurting hungry children, pregnant and nursing mother and babies as well as seniors who rely on Meals On Wheels. They do not care that their actions could have hurt millions of retirees retirement money.
And the battles are already engaged. Who does the House of representatives appoint to work on te Farm Bill which includes the food stamp program but the most anti food stamp person, Rep. Steve Southerland (R-FL). He would throw millions of needy folks off the food stamp program. So that battle line is already engaged. Why they will not appoint someone to work on a jobs program that will put people to back work is beyond my ken. Putting people back to work would solve some of food stamp issue but these people have not even proposed a jobs program even though they say all the time JOBS JOBS JOBS.
The shutdown cost us the taxpayers an estimated 24 billion dollars but the Congress still got paid and for what? Telling lies and more lies and sitting on their thumbs while keeping the nation in an uproar not knowing what would befall us.
There is a petition calling for the Justice Department to arrest leaders in the House for sedition! I say go for it and get rid of them before they can do more harm. In my last post I called them political terrorists and I still believe that and if we think it is over, think again!
It is such a joke to me that Senator Susan Collins is getting high marks for helping end the shutdown when she voted for it TWICE! She talks out of both sides of her mouth and wants it both ways.
Well, we shall see where all this leads and hopefully reasonable people will prevail.
