AmiBlue commented on the blog post US Reaches Debt Limit; Treasury Maneuvers
The cons don’t care if people aren’t paid or if projects aren’t funded. That’s their whole point, isn’t it? Defund the government and let Obama/the Dems take the blame. And there are more ways than one to do that.

AmiBlue commented on the blog post McConnell Admits Bipartisanship is About Subverting Accountability
I wrote my D senator recently and ask one question: Why are the democrats letting the republicans set the agenda? I received a form letter back that said that he had to serve all his constituents, which is a slightly different form of bipartisanship. Not only does bipartisanship subvert accountability, but on the D side it also relieves the pols of having to uphold any pesky values. Whatever else you can say about the cons, they have their values and they stick with them come hell or high water.

And it would be a jobs generating machine: First, more representatives and second, exponentially more lobbyists. So, sadly, in the end it would not solve the lobbyists influence on government officials.

It used to be just books that conservative wanted to ban, but now it’s _words_? Well, who knew that “refudiation” would be the beginning of a whole new language.

AmiBlue commented on the blog post LaHood Threatens to Take HSR Stimulus Money from Ohio, Wisconsin
I must say this is the best news I’ve read since Obama’s inauguration. I wonder if Obama even knows that Lahood plans to do this and if Obama will make him back down when he gets back from his trip. I have no faith that Obama has a clue yet about what he’s done wrong.
