I just saw Barbara Lee hand the TP thugs their ass in clear unequivocal terms. A thing of beauty.

Although I may have to turn it off, because every time I hear "Democrat friends," my teeth get set on edge.

I didn't know they were televising a special session.

Thank you for drawing my attention to it!

The government's going to shut down whether I watch or not. It's stupid, but we have no control over the situation - we're dealing with a bunch of dogmatists on Capitol Hill.

Not sure if our President liked the opening. With friends like this who needs enemies?

Poking myself in the eyes with knitting needles heated to red hot might be a tad less entertaining than that.

Forgive me for saying this... but watching Kardiashian women doing laundry might just be slightly more entertaining than watching C-SPAN on a Saturday night.

Cutting my toenails... trimming the hair that has suddenly appeared in my ear canals, picking my nose... biting my fart bubbles in the bathtub-

Those would ALL be more exciting than watching C-SPAN for a single minute.

That's just me though.

P.S. Those fart bubbles are fassssst.

They like to invoke the founding fathers so much ...

The founding fathers would be ashamed beyond words.

Them and their uminformed fox news watching supporters are some of the most evil and selfish people I have ever seen.
