Thread: NO FURLOUGH!!!

Don't count your chickens before their hatched.

Two votes yet to take place, and some of the tweets coming out are strange.
One texas R House member just tweeted that there is a deal on DC abortions.

WTF?


Wait and see.

Furlough postponed til Thursday anyway.

It's a start.

After all the up and down of the past week and preparations required for potential shutdown, I'm in need of a vacation. Morale was out in left field yesterday already...now I have endure this BS for another week. They've already blown billions on lost morale and productivity. I think certain congress people just want to remind everyone of the power they hold over the average citizen.

Yes, I know it's an odd first post.

Ok- the President has now officially signed the deal.

So we have until Thursday.

Now, I wanted to go look and see what was in the actual final bill they voted on at midnight and signed today.

But, you know what? It's not posted on the internet YET.

They voted on it last night, and, despite the rule that says all money bills are supposed to be on the internet for 72 hours before they get voted on..... It STILL isn't on the internet, here, 14 hours AFTER they voted on it.


I guess we'll just have to pass the bill in order to see what's in it.

Jim, did you find that bill on the internet yet? A lot of us are depending on you to find and post it.

Sounds like the King and his Court can do what ever in the hell they want to do and you Surfs need to shut up and know your place. They will post what they want when they want because they are the law of the land.

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country

The reason for that is purely geographical.
