Today we claim the victory that is rightfully ours!

[MrScorpio]

No equivocation, no quarter given, no exceptions.

Either we stand together or we'll fall together.

Grasp it like you own it.

What a glorious morning it is, my peoples.

Greetings, all!

8. I Love the delivery even though I don't like the politician.

[bemildred]

23. He makes a good barbarian, he should stick with that. nt

3. Is this based on the assumption that bills will be passed to avoid shutdown/ceiling?

[Igel]

6. Perhaps. Perhaps not.

Hard to say.

Either way somebody will judge it to be a victory if the (R) just look bad and lose the next election.

Others will only consider it to be a victory of the House does it's little job of passing the only kind of bill that the Senate and the President have said they'd agree to. (Rather like the President's job is signing any bill that the the chambers of Congess agree to, and the Senate's job is passing bills that the House and President would agree to.)

4. Today is the start to a new beginning! The destruction

of the republican party begins!

9. Good

Good to know this, I think we deserve victory always and we should get that always without any delay.

10. I just woke up

Last night the deal was dead. What happened overnight?

[randome]

11. I would prefer not to see it as a Democratic victory.

But as a Republican loss. There is a difference. And 'winning' leads too often to hubris.

12. definitely

This is something better news as it was messy every-time, now it feels good.

[mgardener]

13. I have to say

that I wish they would implode and that raphael edward cruz would be drawn and quartered for the treasonous bastard he is.

And that sarah palin would come down with a non ending form of laryngitis.

Amen

[hue]

14. PS: And pls add Michele Bachmann to the laryngitis list!

[Generic Brad]

15. I especially like that the President is now pushing for a vote on immigration reform

That means we have not only cut off their balls, but we have fried them up and are making them eat it now.

[hue]

16. POTUS stood our ground! The minority (1%) failed. ACA is the LAW!! We will not default!

[MynameisBlarney]

17. Is it over finally?

Or is their some sort of soul crushing caveat given to McConnell?
He was smiling in one of the pics I saw this morning, I don't like when he smiles.

[CapnSteve]

18. HOO-RAH!

It is a beautiful day indeed when we liberals win! Also, kind of shocking. Here in Texas, True blue Dems are not used to winning!

19. Isn't it still a bit early to declare victory?

Hey, I hope you're right, but I never thought they would shut down the government in the first place. I never thought we would come this close to a default, either. Whatever ends up on the table, I'm nervous that Republicans will find a way to destroy it.

[Bandit]

20. Yes we are so lucky to get a deal that is worse than the Ryan Budget.

We are so smart....

[B Calm]

21. Love it!

[Paladin]

22. I'll believe it when I see it.

Sorry, but there have been WAY too many advance declarations of victory during this whole sorry mess. This country is in a lot worse shape than I ever thought it was.

[MrScorpio]

24. VICTORY IS OURS! nt
