The c-span video that this blog links to below is yet another display of Democrat cynicism, but that is what we have come to expect. The congress just passed an appropriations bill, which they have not done for five or six years. They spend lots of time congratulating themselves, citing one another as champions who have done wonderful things, and also whining about the sequestration program that was effected a few years ago to put spending caps in place to bring some economic reality into the budgeting process.
The appropriations bill outlines how money will be spend for various programs. Democrat Dick Durbin sounds like Santa Claus as he reads off how much money they will parcel out to various programs and agencies, and it sounds wonderful. Unlike a responsible family or company, however, they do not talk about income and how much the government will actually take in. The bottom line is that government debt has more than doubled during Barack Obama’s time in office. We are now over $19 trillion in debt, and that does not include state liabilities. We will spend about $500 billion more than the government receives in this year alone. In seven years, the amount owed by every man, woman and child in this country went from $29,000 to $59,000, with no rational way to pay it back. It is simply a game that politicians play, and it could lead to the complete financial ruin of the United States in the next few years as countries and institutions who loan the U.S. the money to pay for these grandiose programs and giveaways realize they will never be paid back. They will then begin to call the debt that we will not be able to pay.
The Democrats are also very sneaky, and buried in these huge, ridiculous bills are other Democrat agenda items. Republicans are afraid to oppose them because the appropriations bill will then be held up and the GOP will be blamed for failing to fund all of these wonderful programs and for shutting down the government. The latest maneuver is truly over the top.
See the trick Democrats played by burying a new policy in the appropriations bill that will affect the women of the nation, page 2:
Women should be forced to register. They want equality then they must do it.
You damn straight and if the draft is ever brought back they too will have to register-
My wife says the senate can go f..k themselves. Ido to.
Feminist liberal Democrats should all have to serve
Equality
Hey Nikkie Mize I also served, now if you actually read what i said then you would know what I was saying,there are some women that can do what men can do and sometimes even better however the majority of women are unable to do or perform the physical demands of our elite forces so don’t tell me that all women can do what men can do because there are a lot of men that can pass the Navy Seal physical activity, the standards for women in the military are definitely lowered because they just don’t have physical ability to do what is necessary,I didn’t say all women I said the majority of women if you would have read it then you would have understood what I was saying other people understood you just didn’t want to hear the truth because your a woman and every time someone says something about women you and all your women friends get up in arms
Not to worry, the likelihood of our government implementing the draft this day in age and the people even showing up to the call is about 0%. Patriotism has all but died in America and even if they did draft women they wouldn’t pursue charges on any for not reporting in or intentionally getting pregnant to avoid serving. Once again, men will carry the torch while the weak fight for undeserved recognition and validation. This is nothing more than feminist pride standing up to a challenge they won’t ever be called on.
What sense does that make !
And you wanted equal rights here you go
No.
Release the worst prison inmates and drop them into Syria. Take all illegal immigrants who chose not to become legitimate U.S. citizens and drop them into the empty prisons.
