A lot of them will vote no to keep their job, but everything will pass tonight.

The Wall Street bosses already tightened the leashes. Can't fukk with their precious credit ratings, not while the markets and corporate profits are at an all time high.

Like Tea Party Terrorists give a fukk about Wall Street. The Holy Partisan Jihad on Obamacare can't stop, won't stop. :takedat: :russ:

Nah, they do. It's no coincidence in my book that they lost a lot of steam and support when they caused the US credit to tank a couple of years back.

Those people have people they answer to. Wealthy donors, friends, and so on.

Once you start fukking with their precious little betting opera...I mean markets, they start putting pressure to end to the nonsense.

lol, well then it makes this all the funnier. @VictorVonDoom had it right, their little monster creation is fukkin up their whole shyt. I can't get enough of the tea partiers to be honest, these cacs just kill me with their Obamacare crusade. I honestly can't wait to see what their next batch of fukkery will be. :heh:

Single payer would've never made it through the Senate though. A public option may have though if the President fought for it.
Yeah, and that was criticism at time. Obama made the calculated decision that it wouldn't fail and didn't want to pick that fight, or alienate the Blue Dogs. I remember Lieberman first and foremost (do we still call him a liberal) basically saying he would fillibuster the public option (I don't know if this was in the media at the time, I'm just going off memory of being there), and Rockefeller, Nelson, etc., all backing off. They were only for it when they thought it had no chance. It was the classic pay lip-service so at to not anger the base, and deflect from having to do anything. I wish Obama would've tried to shame them into it, but I'm not sure if it would've worked.

But I was working with one of the Senator's office who was part of the list of 30 Senators that demanded the public option and we genuinely thought we had a shot back then. That shyt was a joke. It's making me mad just thinking about it.

The Tea Party does not give a fukk about Wall Street. When I say the Tea Party, I mean the actual true Tea party candidates and not the people dressed up in Tea Party garb to win elections who are backed by the Koch Brothers and co. You can tell the difference when you see some starting to fall back when Goldman and JP gave them that :birdman: Some of these Tea party Congressmen were walking around D.C. last week talking about how not raising the debt ceiling would not necessarily cause a default or be catastrophic. I remember sitting there when they would call in to bytch back when I was in college and they were mad but they didn't know what they were mad at. I never thought they would get this far.

Actually I wouldn't say that's entirely true in the case of these House crazies. A lot of these class 2010 southern teabaggers aren't even funded by your usual mega-rich Wall Street/corporate America establishment power brokers. They get big money donations, but they are largely from regional businesses like car dealerships, industrial management companies, construction, etc. Most of their donors are millionaires, not billionaires. That's why so many of them are :pacspit: They kinda are grassroots, on a political scale anyway. Just grassroots retarded.

And many of them have no education in economics at all, whether formal or otherwise. Take that moron from Florida Ted Yoho who said passing the debt limit won't do anything. The man is a veterinarian in a rural ass area of north Florida. He knows nothing about economics.

And that's the profile of a lot of these 2010 class teabaggers. They're financially well-off big fishes in small southern ponds that don't really know anything about political science or econ who listen to Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin and decided to run in Republican primaries in gerrymandered red districts and they won.

Now Ted Cruz is in the Senate and the big dogs run shyt there. They told him to :camby: and he fell back faster and harder than the House folks after his little stunt got the hounds frothing.

I agree, which is why I said that those who will have their jobs/funding in jeopardy will vote no. But I distinguish those inbreds with the Koch inspired Tea Party movement. Dudes like Ryan, Cruz, Cantor, etc.. They have bosses to answer to.

Listening to talk radio today was pure comedy. Almost felt like the day after the election.

@VictorVonDoom
I listened to Mark Levin for a few in my car on break tonight. He was mad as fukk. :lolbron: I'm going to go online tomorrow and listen to more of today's show when it comes up. I know he opened with an epic rant. :heh:

@VictorVonDoom

But I'd be willing to bet that if it came down to those politicians you were speaking about, if it actually came down to their vote, they would find "motivation" to vote for it. Kickbacks, corporate funding, corporate employment, etc.. There might be a few in there who would go balls to the wall.

Like what happened in the Senate today, 18 of them voted no because they knew it had the votes to pass. They get to save face, and not impede. But I bet that if it came down to needing 90 votes to pass (made up scenario), most of them would in my opinion.

When you talking about fukking with markets and credit ratings, that means a lot to very important and powerful people.

Just my opinion.

Listen to Rush and Levin tomorrow. Rush was particularly unhinged today. He went on this diatribe for half his show about Obama's crusade against America.
Levin and Savage are the best to me because of their unyielding allegiance to kayfabe. Rush be sounding like he's having too much fun. Savage and Levin be sounding legitimately furious.
