ORIGINAL: TheHeretic Bullshit, Lucy. This is all about the feds. This is about the Democrats being forced into a fight, staking their ground, and then losing it. I realize you have no dog in the fight, and just think it's amusing to dabble in our politics, so I'm not surprised that you have missed one of the most critical elements in play here. The reason we had this fight at all this year is because the previously Democrat controlled Congress failed to even try to pass a budget. In the military, that would be called dereliction of duty. Not, they couldn't get one throught the obstructionist Republicans, mind you. They never even tried. They got their asses kicked for it, and rightly so. You have no clue about any of that, but are perfectly happy to pick up the talking point that it's all about being mean to women. Actually, they did try, whether you want to believe it or not, and every time the budget was brought up in the senate, the REPUBLICANS filibustered it. It is a matter of record. The Republicans have made it clear they are in no mood to compromise.
