I'm seeing a number of RW bloggers today posting stuff like this:
If you are reading this post, you should know the US government has gone into complete partial meltdown shutdown after the Democrats in the Senate refused to compromise with Republicans. If you are worried about what to do next, please DO NOT PANIC. Everything will be OK.
They're trying to blame Democrats for the shutdown, while at the same time sarcastically downplaying the impact of the shutdown.
They know they're the ones to blame, and they're starting to sweat...

elimination of pre-existing conditions.
THAT"S IMPOSSIBLE!!! It's the individual mandate that provides sufficient income to the insurance companies so that they CAN cover pre-existing conditions. Rep Duffy has thus proven has no basic understanding about how ACA will work.
House of Roberts
(5,170 posts)7. The Democrats did compromise.
They agreed to not ask for anything special in the CR if the Republicans wouldn't ask for anything special.

A) they have willfully violated their oath of office and should be prosecuted for doing so with purpose of evasion
I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God.

I think it is appropriate for We the People to demand prosecution (impeachment) and their removal from office with all pensions and pay from the time they took this oath forfeited.
