OT. Government shutdown over
Wow. I can breathe again. It doesn't seem to matter which set of
idiots is running the show. They'll spend far more money than the government takes in. I wonder how many people's lives were impacted by the show. |

When Schumer lost Wolf Blitzer it was like Johnson losing Cronkite in Vietnam. It was over, they just had to know when to quit. This was Schumer's shutdown. |

When Schumer lost Wolf Blitzer it was like Johnson losing Cronkite in Vietnam. It was over, they just had to know when to quit. This was Schumer's shutdown. I don't see how this is a loss for Schumer. Trump lit the fuse on DACA, created the crisis in Sept, he set the March deadline. Trump and the GOP had from then until now to legalize DACA. They did nothing until about 10 days ago. Then Congress comes up with a bipartisan proposal, after being told by Trump two days earlier that they were great people, that they'd come up with a great solution and he's sign it. Trump ********d it. So, with DACA about to be deported starting in a month, the Democrats forced the issue. They refused to pass a budget unless DACA is fixed. The govt shut down for two days. Now it's open again, with the can kicked down the road for just two weeks with a promise by McConnell to bring DACA up before then. Trump is running around gloating, claiming that he won, Democrats caved. That again is more proof of where the problem is, who's the child. Polls show 70%+ Americans want DACA legalized. Polls show by a wide margin, more people blame Trump and the GOP for the shutdown. We have yet to see Trump say WTF it is that he will sign. The media is showing people similar to DACA people, people who have been here 30 or 40 years, being rounded up, deported, families left fatherless. Polls show that Latinos want Democrats in Congress in Nov 64% to 19%. And you really think Schumer is the loser here? |

Evidently enough other people agreed so he stopped it. McConnell has said he wants to deal with immigration as a separate issue and he has weeks to do it. In washington terms, that is an eternity. They never do anything until the last minute. Schumer was stupid to try to roll it up in a totally unrelated appropriations bill. Nobody likes extortion. If this is as popular as you say, it should be easy to get through congress. I just have to wonder if the polls are slanted because it is clear congress must think so. Bear in mind, those same pollsters predicted a Hillary landslide so there does seem to be a flaw in their modeling. It might be as simple as people who vote, hang up on strangers on the phone. I know I do. |

He's up for election this year and in siding with Schumer he has lost my vote. https://www.rollcall.com/news/politi...2018-democrats I have no idea what he is thinking since he voted against the DREAM Act. This isn't the first quixotic play he has made recently. Maybe he wants to go back to farming. |
